Original description

The description as published by the source.

Impact

When a request is replayed onto a different host, the client updates only the current request and leaves the target request pointing at the original host. Four consumers read that stale value, and each one sends the first host's request, credentials, or both to the second host.

A replay happens through documented, ordinary features: a ResponseFilter that returns a different request, which is the supported failover pattern, and the IOException retry path. The attacker does not need to induce the replay; an application that uses failover produces it by design.

  • The socket to host B is filed in the connection pool under host A's key. A later request the application addresses to A is served over the connection to B, and A's Authorization header goes to B.
  • Over a CONNECT tunnel, the client tunnels to B and negotiates TLS with B correctly, then writes A's request into that tunnel. B receives A's path, A's Host, and A's Authorization. TLS does not protect against this, because the handshake really is with B, so no certificate mismatch occurs.
  • The replay reuses the original realm, so A's credentials are regenerated onto a replay request that carries no realm of its own. The cross-origin redirect path strips realms for exactly this reason; the replay path never did.
  • The stale value also decides whether TLS is used at all. When the original request was http:// and the replay is https://, no SSL handler is installed and the replayed request, credentials i…
