io.netty:netty-codec-http@4.0.6.Final vulnerabilities

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling. Netty currently just skips control characters when these are present at the beginning or end of the header name. It should instead fail fast as these are not allowed by the spec and could lead to HTTP request smuggling. Failing to do the validation might cause netty to "sanitize" header names before it forward these to another remote system when used as proxy. This remote system can't see the invalid usage anymore, and therefore does not do the validation itself.

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.71.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling. If a Content-Length header is present in the original HTTP/2 request, the field is not validated by Http2MultiplexHandler as it is propagated up.

An additional case of this vulnerability was fixed in 4.1.61.Final (CVE-2021-21409).

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.60.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Disclosure via the AbstractDiskHttpData method, and on Unix-like systems.

When netty's multipart decoders are used, local information disclosure can occur via the local system temporary directory if temporary storing uploads on the disk are enabled. On unix-like systems, the temporary directory is shared between all users. As such, writing to this directory using API's that do not explicitly set the file/directory permissions can lead to information disclosure. The method File.createTempFile on unix-like systems creates a random file, but, by default will create this file with the permissions -rw-r--r--. Sensitive information is written to this file in AbstractDiskHttpData, and other local users can read it.

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.59.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS). When the post request body data received by the server is greater than 16k, netty will use DiskAttribute, which will create a temporary file, and use deleteOnExit() when the file needs to be deleted, which results in DeleteOnExitHook.files continually growing and leading to a denial of service.

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.53.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling. It allows an HTTP header that lacks a colon, which might be interpreted as a separate header with an incorrect syntax or as an "invalid fold."

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.44.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling due to the package mishandling Transfer-Encoding whitespace (such as a [space]Transfer-Encoding:chunked line) and a later Content-Length header when using HTTP/1.1. This issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2019-16869.

NOTE: This vulnerability has also been identified as: CVE-2020-7238

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.44.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling due to the package mishandling Transfer-Encoding whitespace (such as a [space]Transfer-Encoding:chunked line) and a later Content-Length header when using HTTP/1.1. This issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2019-16869.

NOTE: This vulnerability has also been identified as: CVE-2019-20445

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.44.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling. Netty mishandles whitespace before the colon in HTTP headers such as a Transfer-Encoding : chunked line. This can lead to HTTP request smuggling where an attacker can bypass security controls, gain unauthorized access to sensitive data, and directly compromise other application users.

Note:

io.netty:netty is deprecated. Users should update to io.netty:netty-all

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.1.42.Final or higher.

io.netty:netty-codec-http is a network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. It does not validate cookie name and value characters, allowing attackers to potentially bypass the httpOnly flag on sensitive cookies.

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-http to version 4.0.28.Final, 4.1.0.Beta5 or higher.
