## Triage Issues
## Triage issues
- Apply appropriate labels and respond as needed.
- For bug reports, ask for a minimal reproduction (axios version, environment, request/response details) before deeper triage.
- If an issue is not directly about axios, convert it to a discussion.
- Issues will only be closed when they are resolved, a fix is merged, lack of clarity and/or reproduction or the reporter requests closure. Do not close issues for inactivity we want to keep the history and be responsive if more information comes in later.

## Submit PRs
When opening a PR make sure:
When opening a PR, make sure:
- **Scope:** the change fits within axios. Features that belong in user code or a plugin should be declined early and kindly.
- **Platform parity:** behavior is covered across the XHR, Fetch, and Node HTTP adapters where relevant. Detect by capability, not environment name.
- **Type definitions:** both `index.d.ts` (ESM) and `index.d.cts` (CJS) are updated when the public API changes.
- **Errors:** axios-originated failures throw `AxiosError` with an appropriate code, never raw `Error`. Third-party errors are wrapped with `AxiosError.from`.
- **Tests:** unit tests cover the change; browser/smoke/module suites are updated when packaging or runtime surface is affected.
- **CI:** lint and tests pass before requesting review. Do not merge red PRs.
- **Dependencies:** no new runtime dependencies without discussion. `package-lock.json` changes must keep `lockfile-lint` happy (npm HTTPS hosts, integrity hashes).
- **Security-sensitive areas:** changes touching URL construction, redirects, proxy/env handling, XSRF, socket paths, decompression limits, prototype walking, or adapters get extra scrutiny and focused regression tests. Consult [THREATMODEL.md](./THREATMODEL.md).
- **Deprecations:** removed functionality is properly deprecated with a warning first.
- **API shape:** new public surface is predictable, consistent with existing options, and documented.
- **Commit title:** PRs use [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) (`fix:`, `feat:`, `chore:`, `docs:`, etc.) — release tooling depends on this.
- **Semver impact:** call out whether this is a patch, minor, or breaking change, and target the right branch (`v1.x` for the current maintenance line; breaking work goes elsewhere).

At least one maintainer must review and approve the PR before it can be merged. If you are unsure about the impact of a change, ask for a second opinion. If you are making a breaking change, make sure to call it out in the PR description and target the appropriate branch. If you are fixing a bug, make sure to include a test that reproduces the issue and verifies the fix.

## Security Disclosures
## Security disclosures
If someone reports a suspected vulnerability in a public issue, do not discuss specifics in the thread. Redirect them to the process described in [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) (GitHub security advisories) and close or hide the issue as appropriate.
## What Collaborators Should Not Do
## What collaborators should not do
- Add runtime dependencies unilaterally — the dependency surface is intentionally tiny.
- Add runtime dependencies without discussion. The dependency surface is intentionally tiny.
- Disable `ignore-scripts` in `.npmrc` or otherwise weaken install-time safety.
- Weaken `beforeRedirect`, proxy, `socketPath`, XSRF, or prototype-pollution safeguards without tests covering the regression cases.

## Reporting a Vulnerability
## Reporting a vulnerability
If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in the project, please report it to us as described below. We take all security vulnerabilities seriously. If you have found a vulnerability in a third-party library, please report it to the maintainers of that library.
If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in axios, report it through the private channel below. If the vulnerability is in a third-party library, report it to that library's maintainers.
## Reporting Process
## Reporting process
Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues. Please use the official security channel on GitHub by logging a [security advisory](https://github.com/axios/axios/security).
Do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues. Use GitHub's private security channel by opening a [security advisory](https://github.com/axios/axios/security).
## Disclosure Policy
## Disclosure policy
When we receive a security vulnerability report, we assign it a primary handler. The handler confirms the problem, determines affected versions, evaluates severity, develops and ships a fix, and coordinates public disclosure with the reporter.
### 60-day resolution and disclosure commitment
We commit to **resolving and publicly disclosing every valid security advisory within 60 calendar days of the initial report**, measured from the moment a report is received via the [GitHub security advisory channel](https://github.com/axios/axios/security/advisories/new).
We commit to resolving and publicly disclosing every valid security advisory within 60 calendar days of the initial report, measured from the moment a report is received through the [GitHub security advisory channel](https://github.com/axios/axios/security/advisories/new).
The 60-day clock is a commitment to reporters and downstream consumers — a backstop, not an aspiration. If we cannot ship a fix in time, we still publish the advisory at day 60 with the best available mitigation guidance so consumers can act. We then continue to work on the fix and update the advisory with the patch details as soon as possible.

We then keep working on the fix and update the advisory with patch details when they are ready.
We will release the fix separately from the advisory, but we will not delay the advisory beyond day 60. We want to release the fix before we publish the advisory to give users the opportunity to patch before the vulnerability details are public.
We release the fix separately from the advisory, but we do not delay the advisory beyond day 60. We try to release the fix before publishing the advisory so users can patch before vulnerability details are public.
**Exceptions and extensions.**
Exceptions and extensions:
- If a reporter requests a shorter embargo (e.g. they plan to present findings at a conference), we accommodate where possible.
- If a fix requires a breaking change, coordinating with major downstream consumers, or a `follow-redirects` / `form-data` / `proxy-from-env` upstream release, we may extend beyond 60 days. Any extension is disclosed publicly at day 60 via the advisory, with a revised ETA and the reason.
- If a report turns out to be **out of scope** (e.g. falls under an explicit non-goal in [THREATMODEL.md §2.6](THREATMODEL.md)), we close it with an explanation to the reporter within the triage window (≤ 3 days). Out-of-scope reports do not enter the 60-day queue.
- **Actively exploited vulnerabilities** are treated as incidents: fix and advisory ship as soon as a patch is validated, not on the 60-day schedule.

- Actively exploited vulnerabilities are treated as incidents. The fix and advisory ship as soon as a patch is validated, not on the 60-day schedule.
**Reporter expectations.**
Reporter expectations:
While a report is under embargo, we ask reporters to refrain from public disclosure until the earlier of: (a) the coordinated advisory publication, or (b) day 60. If the 60-day deadline passes without action from us, reporters are free to disclose independently — but we will treat that as a failure on our part, not on theirs.

Security updates will be released as soon as possible after the patch has been developed and tested. We will notify users of the release via the project’s GitHub repository. We will also publish the release notes and security advisories on the project’s GitHub releases page. We will also deprecate all versions that contain the security vulnerability.

# Axios Threat Model
# Axios threat model
This document describes the threat model for axios - both as a **library consumed at runtime** by millions of applications, and as an **open-source project** with a build pipeline, release infrastructure, and human maintainers.
This document describes the threat model for axios: a library used at runtime by millions of applications, and an open-source project with a build pipeline, release infrastructure, and human maintainers.
It is intended for maintainers, security researchers, and downstream consumers performing supply-chain due diligence. It is a living document; if you find a gap, open a security advisory rather than a public issue.

## 1. Scope and methodology
We model two distinct systems:
| System | What is being protected | Who attacks it |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Runtime** | Applications that `import axios` | Malicious servers, network attackers, malicious application input |
| **Project / SDLC** | The integrity of what gets published to npm | Supply-chain attackers, phishers, malicious contributors |
| Runtime | Applications that `import axios` | Malicious servers, network attackers, malicious application input |
| Project / SDLC | The integrity of what gets published to npm | Supply-chain attackers, phishers, malicious contributors |
For each, we enumerate **assets**, **trust boundaries**, **threat actors**, and **threats** (rated by likelihood × impact). Where mitigations exist in the codebase today, we cite the file. Where they do not, we say so.
For each system, we list assets, trust boundaries, threat actors, and threats, rated by likelihood x impact. When mitigations exist in the codebase, we cite the file. When they do not, we say so.
The runtime model is general by design - axios is a transport library and cannot know what its callers consider sensitive. The project model is specific and actionable.

1. **Caller ↔ axios.** The caller is fully trusted. Anything the caller passes in `config` is assumed intentional. axios does **not** defend against a malicious caller - that is a non-goal.
2. **axios ↔ network.** Everything past the socket is untrusted: response status, headers, body, redirect `Location`, proxy responses.
3. **axios ↔ environment variables.** `HTTP_PROXY` / `HTTPS_PROXY` / `NO_PROXY` are read by `proxy-from-env`. An attacker who controls the environment can redirect all traffic. This is treated as trusted (same privilege as the process), but is a relevant pivot in container-escape and CI scenarios.
4. **Caller-supplied hooks ↔ axios internals.** Interceptors, `transformRequest`, `transformResponse`, `paramsSerializer`, `beforeRedirect`, custom adapters. These run with full process privilege. axios does not sandbox them.

| **Description** | A _different_ library in the caller's dependency tree pollutes `Object.prototype` (e.g. `Object.prototype.validateStatus = () => true`). axios code that reads a config property through the prototype chain then picks up the attacker's value and executes the associated behavior. Each reachable property is a distinct **gadget**: `validateStatus` (bypass HTTP error handling), `parseReviver` (silently tamper JSON response bodies), `transport` / `httpAgent` / `lookup` (MITM / intercept), `withXSRFToken` (leak XSRF token cross-origin), `transformResponse` (response replacement), and so on. |
| **Likelihood** | Low–Medium (requires a polluted prototype somewhere in the process — historically common). |
| **Impact** | High — arbitrary behavior change across every axios call (auth bypass, response tampering, credential leakage). Unlike T-R4, this does not require axios itself to pollute — any polluted process is enough. |

### 2.6 Explicit Non-Goals (Runtime)
### 2.6 Explicit non-goals (runtime)
axios will **not**:
axios will not:
- Sandbox or validate caller-supplied functions (interceptors, transforms, adapters, serializers).
- Validate that `config.url` points somewhere "safe." We don't know what safe means for your application.
- Warn when TLS validation is disabled via a custom agent.

- Defend against a fully compromised caller process (e.g. attacker-controlled code running inside the caller). Note: for the narrower case of a **polluted `Object.prototype` arriving via a transitive dependency**, axios _does_ defend the reachable config-read gadgets (see T-R4b) — but any new config-read path must continue to use `hasOwnProp` guards to stay on this side of the line.

2. **Main branch ↔ release tag.** Pushing to `v1.x` does not publish. Only pushing a `v1.*.*` **tag** does. Tag push requires write access.

#### T-S2: Compromised dev dependency steals maintainer keys

Materially improved by the project-level `.npmrc` + hardware-backed maintainer keys, but still the top residual investment area** — because build-tool plugin execution (Rollup/Babel/Vitest/ESLint) is unaffected by `ignore-scripts` and runs whenever a maintainer builds or tests.

The attack surface is enormous and refreshes on every `npm install`. |

Timestamps, plugin ordering, and minifier nondeterminism would need to be locked down. <br>• `.github/workflows/verify-build-reproducibility.yml` performs a two-pass build-and-diff on PRs that touch build-related paths (`lib/**`, `rollup.config.js`, `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, and the workflow itself). It is currently non-blocking (`continue-on-error: true`). It surfaces divergence in the CI summary so reproducibility regressions are visible, without gating merges until the build is deterministic. Once divergence is eliminated, remove `continue-on-error` to promote this to a hard gate. |

If a maintainer suspects credential compromise (phish clicked, lost hardware key, unexpected tag/publish, leaked token in logs), execute the steps below in order. Speed matters more than completeness. A published malicious version affects every downstream consumer.
**1. Contain — minutes 0–15**
#### 1. Contain, minutes 0 to 15
- **GitHub**: revoke all active sessions (`https://github.com/settings/sessions`), revoke all OAuth/PAT tokens (`/settings/tokens`, `/settings/applications`), review authorized SSH keys and remove any unrecognised. If a PAT with `repo` or `admin:org` scope existed, assume leak.
- **npm**: `npm token list` → `npm token revoke <token>` for any publish-capable token. If no CLI access, revoke via `https://www.npmjs.com/settings/<user>/tokens`. Rotate npm password + force sign-out of all sessions.
- **Workstation**: if a build/install ran malicious code, **assume full-user compromise** of the laptop. Unplug from trusted networks. Do not rely on AV; move to clean machine for rotation steps.
- GitHub: revoke all active sessions (`https://github.com/settings/sessions`), revoke all OAuth/PAT tokens (`/settings/tokens`, `/settings/applications`), review authorized SSH keys and remove any unrecognised. If a PAT with `repo` or `admin:org` scope existed, assume leak.
- npm: run `npm token list` and `npm token revoke <token>` for any publish-capable token. If no CLI access, revoke via `https://www.npmjs.com/settings/<user>/tokens`. Rotate npm password and force sign-out of all sessions.
- Workstation: if a build/install ran malicious code, assume full-user compromise of the laptop. Unplug from trusted networks. Do not rely on AV; move to a clean machine for rotation steps.
**2. Assess — minutes 15–60**
#### 2. Assess, minutes 15 to 60
- Check `https://github.com/axios/axios/settings/security-log` and `https://github.com/<maintainer>/security/log` for unrecognised events (key adds, org changes, force-pushes, new tags).
- Verify recent tags match intent: `git log --tags --oneline -n 20`. Compare with `https://www.npmjs.com/package/axios?activeTab=versions`.
- For each recent publish, verify provenance: `npm audit signatures axios@<version>` and cross-check the `sourceCommit` in the provenance attestation against the tag's SHA. Divergence = investigate.
- Review `~/.npmrc`, `~/.ssh/`, `~/.config/gh/hosts.yml`, `~/.gnupg/` for tampering and unexpected files.
**3. Rotate — hour 1–4**
#### 3. Rotate, hour 1 to 4
- Generate new SSH keys on clean hardware. Remove old keys from GitHub. If using `sk-ssh-ed25519@openssh.com`, register new hardware key first, then deregister the old one — do not leave the account with zero registered keys.
- Generate new SSH keys on clean hardware. Remove old keys from GitHub. If using `sk-ssh-ed25519@openssh.com`, register new hardware key first, then deregister the old one. Do not leave the account with zero registered keys.
- Re-enrol WebAuthn authenticators (both primary and backup). Deregister lost/compromised authenticators.
- Rotate GPG keys if signed commits are used; upload new key to GitHub.
- Rotate any cloud credentials (`~/.aws/`, `~/.config/gcloud/`) and any tokens present on the compromised machine.
**4. Notify — hour 1 onward**
#### 4. Notify, hour 1 onward
- **npm security**: `security@npmjs.com`. Include package name, suspected versions, timeline.
- **GitHub security**: `https://github.com/contact` → Security category. Request an investigation of the account.
- **Downstream**: open a GitHub security advisory (`https://github.com/axios/axios/security/advisories/new`) as soon as a malicious version is confirmed published. Do **not** wait for a fix — users need to pin away from the bad version.
- Co-maintainers (when present): notify via out-of-band channel (phone/Signal), not via a potentially compromised channel.
- npm security: `security@npmjs.com`. Include package name, suspected versions, timeline.

- Co-maintainers (when present): notify via out-of-band channel (phone/Signal), not through the compromised channel.
**5. Unpublish / deprecate — hour 1–24**
#### 5. Unpublish / deprecate, hour 1 to 24
- npm allows `npm unpublish <pkg>@<version>` within **72 hours** of publish. After that, use `npm deprecate <pkg>@<version> "<reason>"` with a message pointing to the advisory.
- npm allows `npm unpublish <pkg>@<version>` within 72 hours of publish. After that, use `npm deprecate <pkg>@<version> "<reason>"` with a message pointing to the advisory.
- Publish a patched version that bumps semver above the malicious one, so `^` consumers move forward automatically.
**6. Post-mortem — within 1 week**
#### 6. Post-mortem, within 1 week
- Write up timeline: initial vector, dwell time, scope, mitigations applied.
- Update this threat model if the incident reveals a gap not captured here.

Un en-tête `Host` fourni par l'utilisateur dans `headers` est préservé lorsqu'il est transféré via un proxy (correspondance insensible à la casse sur `host` / `Host` / `HOST`). Cela vous permet de cibler un hôte virtuel différent de l'URL de la requête — par exemple, atteindre `127.0.0.1:4000` tout en faisant traiter la requête par le proxy comme provenant de `example.com`. Si aucun en-tête `Host` n'est fourni, axios utilise par défaut le `hostname:port` de l'URL de la requête comme auparavant.
Pour les cibles `https://`, axios établit un tunnel CONNECT via le proxy et effectue TLS de bout en bout avec l'origine. `Proxy-Authorization` est envoyé uniquement sur la requête CONNECT, jamais sur la requête TLS encapsulée. Les options TLS de `httpsAgent`, comme `ca`, `cert`, `key` et `rejectUnauthorized`, sont transmises à l'agent de tunnel généré afin qu'elles continuent de s'appliquer à la connexion TLS avec l'origine.
