Action Type Old Value New Value
Changed Description 
Actions Http-Client (NPM @actions/http-client) before version 1.0.8 can disclose Authorization headers to incorrect domain in certain redirect scenarios.

  2. that request leads to a redirect (302) and
  3. the redirect url redirects to another domain or hostname 

Then the authorization header will get passed to the other domain.
    
The problem is fixed in version 1.0.8.
