🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: The UriModule manually added the Authorization header to requests. reqwest forwards manually set headers to redirected URLs, potentially leaking credentials to third-party domains if a redirect occurs.
🎯 Impact: An attacker could potentially harvest credentials by redirecting a legitimate request to an attacker-controlled server.
πŸ”§ Fix: Updated UriModule to use reqwest::RequestBuilder::basic_auth() and bearer_auth(), which implement secure header handling on redirects.
βœ… Verification: Ran existing tests to ensure no regression. Manual verification of logic confirms alignment with reqwest security documentation.

…edirects in UriModule

Use reqwest's built-in authentication methods (`basic_auth`, `bearer_auth`) instead of manually setting the Authorization header. This ensures that sensitive credentials are automatically stripped when the client follows redirects to a different domain, preventing potential leakage.
