GHSA-vhj5-x93p-67jw: actix-web-lab has host header poisoning in redirect middleware can generate attacker-controlled absolute redirects
actix-web-lab redirect middleware uses request-derived host information to construct absolute redirect URLs (for example, https://{hostname}{path}). In deployments without strict host allowlisting, an attacker can supply a malicious Host header and poison the Location response header, causing open redirect/phishing behavior.
