CVE-2018-20060  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 python3-urllib3 to version 1.22-6.4.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python3-urllib3 package and not the python3-urllib3 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

urllib3 before version 1.23 does not remove the Authorization HTTP header when following a cross-origin redirect (i.e., a redirect that differs in host, port, or scheme). This can allow for credentials in the Authorization header to be exposed to unintended hosts or transmitted in cleartext.
