Description

A flaw was found in Axios, a software library for making network requests. A remote attacker can exploit a prototype pollution vulnerability to inject arbitrary HTTP headers into outgoing requests. This occurs when the application's core object definitions are manipulated, causing Axios to misinterpret data and include attacker-controlled headers in network communications. This could lead to unauthorized actions or data manipulation.
