Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-58150 is a vulnerability in Apache Traffic Server that arises from inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CWE-444). Specifically, the server does not reject Transfer-Encoding headers in HTTP/2 requests, which can be exploited to perform downgrade request smuggling attacks. The affected versions include 8.0.0 through 8.1.9, 9.0.0 through 9.2.14, and 10.0.0 through 10.1.3. Upgrading to versions 9.2.15 or 10.1.4 resolves the issue.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling by exploiting the inconsistent handling of Transfer-Encoding headers in HTTP/2 requests. This can lead to bypassing security controls, request/response desynchronization, and potentially unauthorized actions. The CVSS score of 10.0 indicates a critical impact with high confidentiality and integrity impact and no required privileges or user interaction.

Mitigation Recommendations

Users should upgrade Apache Traffic Server to version 9.2.15 or 10.1.4, where this vulnerability is fixed. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor's recommended upgrade versions. No alternative mitigations are specified.
