Overview

fast-uri is a Dependency-free RFC 3986 URI toolbox

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity due to inconsistent normalization in the host component. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to restricted resources or services by submitting a specially crafted URI containing percent-encoded uppercase characters, which may bypass host allowlists or denylists in applications relying on case-sensitive host validation.
