DEBIAN-CVE-2025-23167
No affected components available
A flaw in Node.js 20's HTTP parser allows improper termination of HTTP/1 headers using \r\n\rX instead of the required \r\n\r\n. This inconsistency enables request smuggling, allowing attackers to bypass proxy-based access controls and submit unauthorized requests. The issue was resolved by upgrading llhttp to version 9, which enforces correct header termination. Impact: * This vulnerability affects only Node.js 20.x users prior to the llhttp v9 upgrade.
