Upgrade System.Private.Uri
to version 4.3.1 or higher.
Overview
System.Private.Uri is a Provides implementation of System.Uri.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass by Spoofing due to the way they parse URL's. An attacker could use it to bypass security logic intended to ensure that a user-provided URL belonged to a specific hostname or a subdomain of that hostname. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker must provide a URL string to an application that attempts to verify that the URL belongs to a specific hostname or to a subdomain of that hostname. The application must then make an HTTP request to the attacker-provided URL either directly or by sending a processed version of the attacker-provided URL to a web browser.
