How to fix?

Upgrade Wolfi dex to version 2.38.0-r1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dex package and not the dex package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

When following an HTTP redirect to a domain which is not a subdomain match or exact match of the initial domain, an http.Client does not forward sensitive headers such as "Authorization" or "Cookie". For example, a redirect from foo.com to www.foo.com will forward the Authorization header, but a redirect to bar.com will not. A maliciously crafted HTTP redirect could cause sensitive headers to be unexpectedly forwarded.
