WebKit in Apple Safari before 5.1.4 does not properly handle redirects in conjunction with HTTP authentication, which might allow remote web servers to capture credentials by logging the Authorization HTTP header.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This old Safari/WebKit flaw could leak HTTP authentication credentials when redirects were handled incorrectly. A malicious or compromised web server might receive and log an Authorization header that should not have been exposed. The source bundle identifies Safari before 5.1.4 and does not provide CVSS scoring. Exposure is most plausible on legacy systems still using Apple Safari before 5.1.4, especially when users browse sites using HTTP authentication and redirects. Modern managed fleets are unlikely to be exposed unless obsolete Safari versions remain in use. Treat this as a legacy credential-leakage risk. It is not KEV-listed and lacks severity scoring, but any remaining affected Safari use should be removed because exposed credentials can create broader account compromise risk. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Safari installations to 5.1.4 or later.; Remove or isolate systems that cannot run a fixed Safari version.; Check Apple advisory guidance before relying on compensating controls..
