Prior to 2.10.0, httpcore2 fails to start TLS in src/httpcore2/httpcore2/_sync/socks_proxy.py and src/httpcore2/httpcore2/_async/socks_proxy.py when the remote origin uses wss through a SOCKS5 proxy because the TLS upgrade condition only recognizes https. HTTPX2 exposes the flaw through Client.websocket() and AsyncClient.websocket() from 2.6.0 through 2.9.1, so the opening handshake, query parameters, Authorization headers, cookies, and subsequent frames can cross the proxy path in plaintext without certificate verification. An attacker controlling or observing that path can read or modify traffic and impersonate the WebSocket server. This issue is fixed in httpcore2 2.10.0 and HTTPX2 2.10.0."

The WebSocket opening handshake and all subsequent frames are sent in plaintext through the proxy path, despite the caller selecting the secure `wss` scheme.\n\nThe transport flaw affects httpcore2 releases before `2.10.0`. HTTPX2 exposed this behavior through its public `Client.websocket()` and `AsyncClient.websocket()` APIs from `2.6.0` through `2.9.1`.\n\n### Details\n\nThe synchronous and asynchronous SOCKS5 connection implementations upgrade the established proxy tunnel to TLS only when the remote origin scheme is `https`. The equivalent check does not include `wss`. After the SOCKS5 handshake succeeds, the raw stream is therefore passed directly to the HTTP/1.1 connection, which writes the WebSocket upgrade request without first performing a TLS handshake or verifying the destination certificate.\n\nFor example, an application using HTTPX2 `2.6.0` through `2.9.1` may open an authenticated WebSocket through a SOCKS proxy:\n\n```python\nimport httpx2\n\nwith httpx2.Client(proxy=\"socks5://proxy.example:1080\") as client:\n    with client.websocket(\n        \"wss://service.example/private?token=query-secret\",\n        headers={\"Authorization\": \"Bearer header-secret\"},\n        cookies={\"session\": \"cookie-secret\"},\n    ) as websocket:\n        websocket.send_text(\"private message\")\n```\n\nOn affected versions, the stream passing through the SOCKS proxy begins with a plaintext request such as:\n\n```text\nGET /private?token=query-secret HTTP/1.1\nHost: service.example\nAuthorization: Bearer header-secret\nCookie: session=cookie-secret\n```\n\nBefore HTTPX2 `2.6.0`, the same underlying httpcore2 behavior could be reached by integrations constructing a WebSocket upgrade request through the low-level transport API, but HTTPX2 did not yet provide its native WebSocket client API.\n\nA normal secure WebSocket server will usually reject these plaintext bytes because it expects a TLS ClientHello. However, a malicious or compromised SOCKS proxy can accept the SOCKS connection, observe the plaintext handshake, return a forged `101 Switching Protocols` response, and then read or modify WebSocket frames in both directions. An observer between the proxy and destination may also read the plaintext traffic.\n\nRFC 6455 requires a client using a secure WebSocket connection to perform the TLS handshake before sending the WebSocket opening handshake.

Direct `wss://` connections and ordinary `https://` requests through SOCKS already start TLS correctly.\n\n### Mitigation\n\nUpgrade HTTPX2 and httpcore2 to `2.10.0` or later.
