follow-redirects is vulnerable to Credential Leakage. The vulnerability is due to insufficient redaction of the proxy-authentication header when handing requests. If an attacker can trigger a cross domain redirect, they can capture the request header containing the sensitive proxy-auth header, resulting in the leakage of credentials.
