## Description

Axios is a promise-based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. From
1.17.0 until 1.20.0, the fetch adapter bypasses the maxRedirects: 0
redirect policy. An Axios request uses the fetch adapter with maxRedirects
set to zero and receives a redirect response. The underlying fetch
implementation follows the redirect instead of returning the redirect
response unchanged. The redirected request can access internal responses or
reach state-changing internal endpoints despite redirects being disabled.
This issue is fixed in version 1.20.0.
