Title
Libsoup: information disclosure in libsoup via soupauthmanager proxy credential leak on proxy switch
Summary
SoupAuthManager caches proxy authentication credentials without scoping them to the proxy authority (host:port). When the proxy configuration changes (e.g., via system settings or WPAD), cached Proxy-Authorization headers from the previous proxy are sent to the new proxy, leaking credentials.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
