GHSA-46q4-43ph-c6fr: 
Java Análise e mitigação de vulnerabilidades

Summary

blaze-server can merge HTTP/1.1 chunked-body trailer fields into Request.headers. Because trailer fields are attacker-controlled, an unauthenticated remote client can inject arbitrary header names/values (e.g. X-Forwarded-For, internal-auth headers) that a fronting proxy sanitized from the request-header section, bypassing header-based trust decisions in the application.

Impact

Any http4s application using BlazeServerBuilder over HTTP/1.1 whose routes or middleware trust proxy-set headers (e.g., X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP, X-Forwarded-Host, org-internal auth headers) is affected. Where a fronting proxy strips/normalizes those headers but forwards chunked bodies with trailers intact, an attacker can spoof client IP for allow-lists/rate-limits/audit, forge the https scheme, or inject internal-auth headers. A promoted Connection: close trailer is also honored, allowing attacker-controlled termination of pooled backend connections.

Workarounds

Deploy behind a proxy that removes trailer fields (or rejects requests that use trailers) before forwarding; until patched, avoid trust decisions based on headers that a proxy is relied upon to sanitize.
