Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests in Netty - CVE-2026-42584

Vulnerability identifier: #VU130205

CSH Severity: Medium

CVSS v4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2026-42584

CWE-ID: CWE-444

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disrupt HTTP parsing integrity and availability on the connection.

The vulnerability exists due to inconsistent interpretation of HTTP responses in HttpClientCodec when processing pipelined HTTP/1.1 responses that include a 1xx response before a GET response body and a subsequent HEAD response. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted sequence of HTTP responses to disrupt HTTP parsing integrity and availability on the connection.

Exploitation requires HTTP/1.1 pipelining, a HEAD request in the pipeline, and a server response sequence that includes a 1xx response.
