RMCP is an official Rust SDK for the Model Context Protocol. Prior to 2.1.0, the rmcp crate's StreamableHttpClientTransport in crates/rmcp/src/transport/common/reqwest/streamable_http_client.rs builds its default_http_client with reqwest's automatic redirect policy and applies caller-supplied values from StreamableHttpClientTransportConfig.custom_headers without marking them as sensitive. When a malicious or compromised MCP endpoint returns a cross-origin 307 or 308 redirect, reqwest follows the redirect and apply_custom_headers causes custom API keys or authentication tokens to be replayed to the new origin, where an attacker can capture and reuse them. The separate auth_header path is not affected because it uses the standard Authorization header, which reqwest strips on cross-origin redirects. This issue is fixed in version 2.1.0.

GHSA-9g45-5xwm-f3wc — RMCP: Custom HTTP headers leak to cross-origin redirect targets

Affected: crates.io: rmcp

## Summary

The `rmcp` crate's `StreamableHttpClientTransport` forwards caller-supplied custom HTTP headers (such as `X-API-Key`, `X-Auth-Token`, `Api-Key`) to cross-origin redirect targets. The `default_http_client()` function builds a `reqwest::Client` without a redirect policy override, so the default `limited(10)` policy follows `307`/`308` redirects and forwards all per-request headers except `Authorization`, `Cookie`, and `Proxy-Authorization`. Custom auth headers injected via `StreamableHttpClientTransportConfig.custom_headers` are not classified as sensitive and are therefore forwarded verbatim to any redirect target — including an attacker-controlled server.

## Affected versions

- Repository: `github.com/modelcontextprotocol/rust-sdk` - Crate: `rmcp` - Commit tested: `c330fede90e4729c234f8e87fdbc5ea27a1dd10c` (HEAD, 2026-05-21)

## Vulnerability

**File:** `crates/rmcp/src/transport/common/reqwest/streamable_http_client.rs`

**Root cause 1 — no redirect policy override:**

```rust // Lines 302-307 fn default_http_client() -> reqwest::Client { reqwest::Client::builder() .pool_max_idle_per_host(0) .build() .expect("failed to build default reqwest client") } ```

No `.redirect(reqwest::redirect::Policy::none())` call. The default `limited(10)` policy follows up to 10 redirects and, on cross-origin redirects, strips only `Authorization`, `Cookie`, and `Proxy-Authorization`.

**Root cause 2 — custom headers not sensitivity-marked:**

```rust…
