treq is an HTTP library inspired by requests but written on top of Twisted's Agents. Treq's request methods (`treq.get`, `treq.post`, etc.) and `treq.client.HTTPClient` constructor accept cookies as a dictionary. Such cookies are not bound to a single domain, and are therefore sent to *every* domain ("supercookies"). This can potentially cause sensitive information to leak upon an HTTP redirect to a different domain., e.g. should `https://example.com` redirect to `http://cloudstorageprovider.com` the latter will receive the cookie `session`. Treq 2021.1.0 and later bind cookies given to request methods (`treq.request`, `treq.get`, `HTTPClient.request`, `HTTPClient.get`, etc.) to the origin of the *url* parameter. Users are advised to upgrade. For users unable to upgrade Instead of passing a dictionary as the *cookies* argument, pass a `http.cookiejar.CookieJar` instance with properly domain- and scheme-scoped cookies in it.

### Impact Treq's request methods (`treq.get`, `treq.post`, `HTTPClient.request`, `HTTPClient.get`, etc.) accept cookies as a dictionary, for example: ```py treq.get('https://example.com/', cookies={'session': '1234'}) ``` Such cookies are not bound to a single domain, and are therefore sent to *every* domain ("supercookies"). This can potentially cause sensitive information to leak upon an HTTP redirect to a different domain., e.g. should `https://example.com` redirect to `http://cloudstorageprovider.com` the latter will receive the cookie `session`. ### Patches Treq 2021.1.0 and later bind cookies given to request methods (`treq.request`, `treq.get`, `HTTPClient.request`, `HTTPClient.get`, etc.) to the origin of the *url* parameter. ### Workarounds Instead of passing a dictionary as the *cookies* argument, pass a `http.cookiejar.CookieJar` instance with properly domain- and scheme-scoped cookies in it: ```py from http.cookiejar import CookieJar from requests.cookies import create_cookie jar = CookieJar() jar.add_cookie( create_cookie( name='session', value='1234', domain='example.com', secure=True, ), ) client = HTTPClient(cookies=jar) client.get('https://example.com/') ``` ### References * Originally reported at [huntr.dev](https://huntr.dev/bounties/3c9204fc-a3d1-4441-8599-924c5f57e7ae/?token=06d930e37046c914bcb037e85cc227dc7b510b475989fc69837566562ba899277d46b0fb4b1e21cdcb6ddc1b7d9b1ded632cf3a3551ecb89afca16a63b34641284b50479d5195bba2ac09b116f3dd4fad27f54404c2de922c05c8c8b744aec27bb4d4d198cb8b3abf479af0c2d5fbaa10412da7922594ac3eb39) * A related issue in the handling of HTTP basic authentication was addressed in Twisted 22.1 ([GHSA-92x2-jw7w-xvvx](https://github.com/twisted/twisted/security/advisories/GHSA-92x2-jw7w-xvvx), CVE-2022-21712).
treq es una librería HTTP inspirada en peticiones pero escrita sobre los Agentes de Twisted. Los métodos de petición de Treq ("treq.get", "treq.post", etc.) y el constructor "treq.client.HTTPClient" aceptan cookies como diccionario. Dichas cookies no están vinculadas a un único dominio, por lo que son enviadas a *every* los dominios ("supercookies"). Esto puede potencialmente causar que se filtre información confidencial en un redireccionamiento HTTP a un dominio diferente, por ejemplo, si "https://example.com" es redirigido a "http://cloudstorageprovider.com" este último recibirá la cookie "session". Treq versiones 2021.1.0 y posteriores vinculan las cookies dadas a los métodos de petición ("treq.request", "treq.get", "HTTPClient.request", "HTTPClient.get", etc.) al origen del parámetro *url*. Se recomienda a usuarios que actualicen. Para usuarios que no puedan actualizarse En lugar de pasar un diccionario como argumento *cookies*, pase una instancia de "http.cookiejar.CookieJar" con las cookies apropiadas para el dominio y el esquema
