Overview

Twisted is an event-based network programming and multi-protocol integration framework.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure due to improper handling of sensitive data in twisted.web.client.RedirectAgent and twisted.web.client.BrowserLikeRedirectAgent which can cause cookies and authorization headers exposure when following cross-origin redirects.
