Vulnerability identifier: #VU127946
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-34525
CWE-ID: CWE-444
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass a security check and access a privileged sub application.

The vulnerability exists due to inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests in Host header handling when processing requests with multiple Host headers through a reverse proxy. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request with duplicate Host headers to bypass a security check and access a privileged sub application.

Exploitation is theoretically possible when a reverse proxy applies security rules based on the target Host and the application uses Application.add_domain().
