CVE-2024-37891 is an incorrect resource transfer between spheres vulnerability in urllib3, a Python HTTP client library. When an application manually supplies a Proxy-Authorization header without using urllib3's ProxyManager proxy support, urllib3 does not recognize the header as authentication material and, in affected versions, does not remove it when following a cross-origin redirect. The redirected request can therefore transmit proxy authentication credentials to another origin.
