Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
async-http-client versions 3.0.0 to before 3.0.12 and 2.0.0 to before 2.16.1 are affected. When a ws:// request goes through an HTTP proxy with authentication, the proxy credentials are sent to the origin server in the tunnelled WebSocket upgrade request, which lets that server recover them. Upgrade to 3.0.12 or 2.16.1.
