 ## 🔒 Security Fixes
 
-* **Header Injection (CRLF):** Rejects any header value containing `\r` or `\n` characters to block CRLF injection chains that could be used to exfiltrate cloud metadata (IMDS). Behavior change: headers with CR/LF now throw `"Invalid character in header content"`. (__#10660__)

-* **SSRF via `no_proxy` Bypass:** Introduces a `shouldBypassProxy` helper that normalises hostnames (strips trailing dots, handles bracketed IPv6) before evaluating `no_proxy`/`NO_PROXY` rules, closing a gap that could cause loopback or internal hosts to be inadvertently proxied. (__#10661__)

 ## 🐛 Bug Fixes

-* **CI Security Hardening:** Added [zizmor](https://github.com/zizmorcore/zizmor) GitHub Actions security scanner; switched npm publish to OIDC Trusted Publishing (removing the long-lived `NODE_AUTH_TOKEN`); pinned all action references to full commit SHAs; narrowed workflow permissions to least privilege; gated the publish step behind a dedicated `npm-publish` environment; and blocked the sponsor-block workflow from running on forks.
