Description

axios4go is a Go HTTP client library. Prior to version 0.6.4, a race condition vulnerability exists in the shared HTTP client configuration. The global `defaultClient` is mutated during request execution without synchronization, directly modifying the shared `http.Client`'s `Transport`, `Timeout`, and `CheckRedirect` properties. Impacted applications include that that use axios4go with concurrent requests (multiple goroutines, `GetAsync`, `PostAsync`, etc.), those where different requests use different proxy configurations, and those that handle sensitive data (authentication credentials, tokens, API keys). Version 0.6.4 fixes this issue.

Analysis

Concurrent requests in axios4go prior to version 0.6.4 trigger unsynchronized mutations to the shared HTTP client configuration, allowing attackers to manipulate transport settings, timeouts, and redirect handlers across simultaneous operations. Applications using async requests or multiple goroutines with different proxy configurations or handling sensitive credentials are vulnerable to request interception, credential leakage, or denial of service. …
