Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Refit versions before 7.2.22 are vulnerable to CRLF injection through its Header, HeaderCollection and Authorize attributes, because header values are not checked for CRLF characters before being added to requests. An attacker who can influence a header value that an application passes through Refit could inject additional headers or split requests, which in a web application could lead to server-side request forgery. Upgrade Refit to 7.2.22 or later. The source gives few details about how the fix works.
