Problem Statement

The current HTTP client implementation needs advanced features to properly test various API security scenarios.

Proposed Solution

Enhance the HTTP client with:

Cookie handling and management
Proxy support for testing through security tools
Custom TLS configuration for testing weak TLS implementations
Request/response interception hooks for manual manipulation
Automatic retry with configurable backoff

Related OWASP API Security Standards

Affects multiple test cases, particularly API8:2023 Security Misconfiguration.

Additional Context

Advanced HTTP capabilities will allow more sophisticated testing and integration with other security tools.
