Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity due to a flaw in the default filtering mechanism HeaderFilterStrategy that only blocks headers starting with specific prefixes. An attacker can execute arbitrary code and write files by injecting specially crafted case-variant headers when they have producer access to the broker consumed by a route.

Note:

This issue is due to incomplete fix for CVE-2025-27636.
