Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) CRLF injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-41417)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to inject additional HTTP or RTSP requests.
The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of CRLF sequences in DefaultHttpRequest.setUri() and DefaultFullHttpRequest.setUri() when encoding attacker-controlled URIs into request lines through HttpRequestEncoder or RtspEncoder. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted URI containing CRLF sequences to inject additional HTTP or RTSP requests.
Exploitation requires an application to create the request object first, later modify it through setUri(), and then serialize it with HttpRequestEncoder or RtspEncoder.
