Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Use of Less Trusted Source (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-3635)

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.
