CWE-ID: CWE-348 - Use of Less Trusted Source
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to spoof the protocol and host seen by the application.
The vulnerability exists due to use of a less trusted source in request.protocol and request.host getters when processing X-Forwarded-Proto and X-Forwarded-Host headers from direct untrusted connections. A remote attacker can send specially crafted X-Forwarded-Proto and X-Forwarded-Host headers to spoof the protocol and host seen by the application.
The issue only manifests when trustProxy is configured with a restrictive trust function, such as a specific IP, a subnet, a hop count, or a custom function.
