CVE-2026-93569

Io.netty/netty-codec-http2: http/1 absolute-form host mismatch is translated to http/2 :authority, overriding the request-target authority

Published Sep 18, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.2 High EPSS 2.4% KEV · Not listed
Description
A flaw was found in Netty. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit a vulnerability in Netty's HTTP/1 to HTTP/2 conversion process. When an HTTP/1 request includes both an absolute-form request-target and a conflicting Host header, Netty incorrectly prioritizes the Host header for the HTTP/2 :authority field, discarding the original request-target authority. This inconsistency can allow an attacker to bypass security controls in Netty-based proxies or gateways, potentially leading to unauthorized access, cache poisoning, or misrouting of requests.
