--proxy-fileparsed proxy entries but silently dropped credentials, making authenticated proxies unusable from a list. HTTP proxies with credentials embedded in the URL were also broken in_setHTTPHandlers()— credentials were extracted but never applied.Changes
_setProxyList()regex — extended to capture optionaluser:pass@group; also fixes a pre-existing bug where[^:]*in the scheme pattern greedily matched across newlines, corrupting proxy type detection:_setHTTPHandlers()— addedelif username and passwordbranch for HTTP proxies so credentials embedded in the proxy URL are forwarded to the proxy handler (SOCKS already handled this path correctly).cmdline.py/sqlmap.conf— updated help text and config comments to document the supported proxy entry format.✨ Let Copilot coding agent set things up for you — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo.
