Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper cache key generation in the server-side fetch cache when processing fetch requests with a request body and a different init than the one used to create the Request object. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to disclose sensitive information.
User interaction is required, and only server-side fetch calls using a Request object together with a different init are affected. Applications using Pages Router are not vulnerable.
Affected software
