Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
electron-updater versions prior to 9.7.0
Description
The HTTP redirect handler
HttpExecutor.prepareRedirectUrlOptions() only removes credential headers that exactly match the lowercase string "authorization". Consequently, other credential-bearing headers, such as PRIVATE-TOKEN or mixed-case Authorization headers, are not stripped and may be forwarded to an attacker-controlled cross-origin redirect destination, leading to credential exposure.Recommendations
Update to version 9.7.0.
