CVE-2026-56746 (GCVE-0-2026-56746)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-21 21:36 – Updated: 2026-07-22 13:39

Title

Netty has a Security Control Bypass via CORS Short-Circuit Failure

Summary

Netty is a network application framework for development of protocol servers and clients. Versions 4.2.0.Final through 4.2.15.Final and 4.1.0.Final through 4.1.135.Final, are vulnerable to security control bypass during the origin evaluation process. CorsHandler provides a shortCircuit() configuration designed to reject unauthorized cross-origin requests immediately, acting as a security control before requests reach the application. However, due to a logical operator error in the origin evaluation process, this protection can be entirely bypassed. An attacker can bypass the short-circuit mechanism by sending a request with an Origin: null header. This failure forwards unauthorized requests to the backend application, bypassing intended access controls. This issue is fixed in versions 4.1.136.Final and 4.2.16.Final.

Summary

Netty: Security Control Bypass via CORS Short-Circuit Failure

Details

Summary

Netty's CorsHandler provides a shortCircuit() configuration designed to reject unauthorized cross-origin requests immediately, acting as a security control before requests reach the application. However, due to a logical operator error in the origin evaluation process, this protection can be entirely bypassed. An attacker can bypass the short-circuit mechanism by sending a request with an Origin: null header. This failure forwards unauthorized requests to the backend application, bypassing intended access controls.

Details

In io.netty.handler.codec.http.cors.CorsHandler#channelRead, the short-circuit logic relies on the configuration returned by getForOrigin(origin) to determine if an origin is authorized. If getForOrigin returns a configuration object, the short-circuit check (!(origin == null || config != null)) is bypassed, and the request proceeds to the backend.

The vulnerability is located in the getForOrigin method:

            if (corsConfig.isNullOriginAllowed() || NULL_ORIGIN.equals(requestOrigin)) {
                return corsConfig;
            }

If an attacker sends Origin: null, NULL_ORIGIN.equals(requestOrigin) evaluates to true. The method returns the configuration object regardless of whether isNullOriginAllowed() was configured by the developer. The short-circuit is bypassed.

Impact

Applications relying on CorsHandler's short-circuit feature to prevent unauthorized cross-origin requests from reaching their backend logic are completely exposed. The framework fails to enforce the developer's intended access controls, allowing unauthorized requests to be processed.

  "details": "### Summary\nNetty\u0027s CorsHandler provides a `shortCircuit()` configuration designed to reject unauthorized cross-origin requests immediately, acting as a security control before requests reach the application. However, due to a logical operator error in the origin evaluation process, this protection can be entirely bypassed. An attacker can bypass the short-circuit mechanism by sending a request with an `Origin: null` header. This failure forwards unauthorized requests to the backend application, bypassing intended access controls.\n\n### Details\nIn `io.netty.handler.codec.http.cors.CorsHandler#channelRead`, the short-circuit logic relies on the configuration returned by `getForOrigin(origin)` to determine if an origin is authorized. If `getForOrigin` returns a configuration object, the short-circuit check `(!(origin == null || config != null))` is bypassed, and the request proceeds to the backend.\n\nThe vulnerability is located in the `getForOrigin` method:\n\n```java\n            if (corsConfig.isNullOriginAllowed() || NULL_ORIGIN.equals(requestOrigin)) {\n                return corsConfig;\n            }\n```\n\nIf an attacker sends `Origin: null`, `NULL_ORIGIN.equals(requestOrigin)` evaluates to true. The method returns the configuration object regardless of whether `isNullOriginAllowed()` was configured by the developer.
