undici vulnerable to TLS certificate validation bypass via dropped requestTls in SOCKS5 ProxyAgent

Advisory ansehen veröffentlicht 2026-06-18Lizenz: CC-BY-4.0

## Impact undici's `ProxyAgent` silently drops the `requestTls` option when configured with a SOCKS5 proxy URI (`socks5://` or `socks://`). The target HTTPS connection through the SOCKS5 tunnel falls back to Node's default trust store, ignoring user-configured `ca`, `cert`, `key`, `rejectUnauthorized`, and `servername` settings. Applications that pin to an internal or corporate CA via `requestTls.ca` will, when their proxy URI is SOCKS5, get the default Mozilla CA bundle as the trust anchor instead. Any cert signed by any publicly-trusted CA for the target hostname is accepted, breaking the intended pin and enabling MITM read and tamper of the HTTPS exchange. Affected applications are those that use undici's `ProxyAgent` (or `Socks5ProxyAgent` directly) with SOCKS5 AND rely on `requestTls` for TLS scope restriction. The bug was introduced in undici 7.23.0 when SOCKS5 support was added. ## Patches Upgrade to undici v7.28.0 or v8.5.0. ## Workarounds No workaround is available within the SOCKS5 path. If a SOCKS5 proxy with TLS scope restriction is required and an upgrade is not yet possible, route the traffic through an HTTP-proxy `ProxyAgent` instead, where `requestTls` is honored correctly.
