CVE-2022-21712 (https://github.com/twisted/twisted/security/advisories/GHSA-92x2-jw7w-xvvx):

twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python. In affected versions twisted exposes cookies and authorization headers when following cross-origin redirects. This issue is present in the `twited.web.RedirectAgent` and `twisted.web. BrowserLikeRedirectAgent` functions. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds.

Please bump to >22.1.
