bearer token leak on cross-protocol redirect

Published Jan 8, 2026 · Updated Sep 15, 2026 · Assigned by curl

Description

When an OAuth2 bearer token is used for an HTTP(S) transfer, and that transfer
performs a cross-protocol redirect to a second URL that uses an IMAP, LDAP,
POP3 or SMTP scheme, curl might wrongly pass on the bearer token to the new
target host.
