CVE-2026-76184
published October 15, 2026
What it is
In Eclipse Jetty, HttpClient may receive a redirect of the form:
```
/secure/../evil
```
If an attacker is able to control the redirects, then HttpClient matches authentication credentials against `/secure` rather than normalizing the path to `/evil`, and will therefore follow the redirect sending the `Authorization` header for `/secure` to `/evil`.
This also mean that the attacker must have an evil application deployed on the same domain as the target.
