Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Hurl versions up to and including 8.0.1 leak cookies declared in the [Cookies] section when a request follows a redirect to a different host. Hurl strips cookies sent as a Cookie header in that case, but not those defined in the [Cookies] section, so they are sent to the new host. No fixed version is listed. Users can avoid the leak by declaring cookies as a Cookie header instead of in the [Cookies] section.
