2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-50379)

3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-11053)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

This however will only occur if the .netrc file has an entry that matches the redirect target hostname but the entry either omits just the password or omits both login and password.
