CVE-2026-107399

The Mechanize library is used for automating interaction with websites. Prior to 2.14.1, Mechanize applies no origin trust boundary in Mechanize::HTTP::Agent#response_follow_meta_refresh when Mechanize#follow_meta_refresh is enabled. A page containing a meta refresh to another origin causes headers configured through Mechanize#request_headers= to be reapplied to the refresh request, allowing an attacker who controls content in the crawl to capture bearer tokens or session cookies. The default configuration is not affected because follow_meta_refresh is false, and the exposure is limited to caller-supplied default headers. This issue is fixed in version 2.14.1.
