description
AsyncHttpClient versions before 3.0.13 and 2.16.1 can send credentials using Basic authentication after receiving a Digest challenge without a usable nonce. An attacker must be able to control an origin or proxy authentication challenge, or modify traffic on a plaintext HTTP connection, to expose credentials.
mitigation
Upgrade org.asynchttpclient:async-http-client to 3.0.13 or later on the 3.x line, or 2.16.1 or later on the 2.x line. Until upgraded, avoid Digest authentication with untrusted servers and over plaintext HTTP.
fixed in 3.0.13, 2.16.1
outcome
No artifact: an exploit or check was attempted but could not be produced at this moment.
