From b09da2e2aa9e021cd002196299e5ccf892c09365 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cursor Agent Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 14:15:17 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] fix: prevent CRLF injection in CONNECT request headers The buildConnectRequest function interpolated header names and values directly into the raw HTTP CONNECT request without validation. This allowed CRLF sequences in header values to inject arbitrary headers into the proxy CONNECT request (CWE-113). Add validateHeaderName() and validateHeaderValue() that reject names or values containing CR, LF, or NUL characters. These are called automatically in buildConnectRequest and also exported for consumers who want to pre-validate input.

Libraries like wretch and typed-rest-client throw immediately on non-2xx (unlike axios/got which are configured with throwHttpErrors:false/validateStatus), and ky has built-in retry that masks the flakiness. Add a retry mechanism (up to 2 retries with backoff) for transient errors (503, 502, socket hang up, ECONNRESET, etc.) so tests are resilient to intermittent proxy/target unavailability.

Increase max retries from 2 to 4 with longer backoff (2s * attempt) to give the proxy rate limiter more recovery time. 2. wretch test: when wretch throws on non-2xx, check err.response.proxyHeaders to verify CONNECT headers were captured (the test's actual purpose) regardless of target response status. 3. typed-rest-client test: when request throws on non-2xx, check client.proxyAgent.lastProxyHeaders which is populated during CONNECT independent of target response.
