Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of URL Encoding (Hex Encoding) when a request is sent with a URL fragment. An attacker can bypass frontend proxy URI-based access control restrictions by exploiting the automatic URL encoding and forwarding of the fragment to the backend server.

Note:

This is only exploitable if another frontend proxy like Nginx is used.
