thank you so much for posting these extra details. My product is hosted on Google Cloud and allows users to arbitrarily craft http requests (including headers!)

I try to limit the possibility of abuse (restricting protocol to http, https, //, data, or ftp) but didnt know about this metadata issue.

I updated my product to account for this issue too.

it looks like google's metadata doesn't leak any important secrets (unless I had custom metadata, which i do not) but better safe than sorry!
