Information Disclosure in apprise (CVE-2026-59180)
Summary
Vulnerability in apprise (CVE-2026-59180). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via Authorization. Mitigation: upgrade to 1.11.0 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
Apprise's HTTP-based notification plugins and its HTTP attachment / config loaders (apprise/attachment/http.py, apprise/config/http.py) follow HTTP 3xx redirects by default and re-send the user-configured auth headers and query parameters on the redirected request. If an operator-configured destination is later compromised (service takeover, malicious update), or an attacker holds a MITM position on an unprotected network path, that destination can return a 302 Location: to an arbitrary host and Apprise forwards the user's secret (X-Gotify-Key, Authorization, bearer tokens in query, custom +Header= values) to that cross-origin host. The attacker does not need to control the original Apprise URL — only the response from a destination the operator already trusts.
This is the application-layer analogue of urllib3 GHSA-34jh-p97f-mpxf / CVE-2026-44431 ("Proxy-Authorization forwarded across cross-origin redirect").
Affected versions
All releases up to and including v1.10.0 (latest PyPI release as of filing, 2026-04-26). Fixed in v1.11.0 (released 2026-05-29), which includes PR #1610 (merged 2026-05-16, commit 68c0aef218055e4586cf4605fd6b56358f5f462d).
