Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Versions of org.asynchttpclient:async-http-client from 3.0.0.Beta1 before 3.0.10, and from 2.0.0 before 2.15.0, do not remove the Cookie header when following a redirect to a different origin or when the redirect downgrades from HTTPS to HTTP. An attacker who can supply a redirect target, such as through an open redirect, a compromised gateway, or a man-in-the-middle position on a plaintext hop, can receive session cookies and other cookie values. Upgrade to 3.0.10 or 2.15.0, which are the fixed versions.
