CVE-2026-59903

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Netty ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen, um einen Denial of Service Angriff durchzuführen, und um Informationen offenzulegen.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Atlassian Bamboo, Bitbucket, Confluence, Crucible, Fisheye und Jira ausnutzen, um Daten zu manipulieren, um seine Privilegien zu erhöhen, um einen Denial of Service Angriff durchzuführen, um Informationen offenzulegen, um einen Cross-Site Scripting Angriff durchzuführen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen und um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen.

### Summary Netty's `CorsHandler` silently overwrites existing `Vary` headers, enabling cache poisoning and sensitive information disclosure. ### Details `io.netty.handler.codec.http.cors.CorsHandler#setVaryHeader` overwrites any existing Vary headers set by backend applications. ```java private static void setVaryHeader(final HttpResponse response) { response.headers().set(HttpHeaderNames.VARY, HttpHeaderNames.ORIGIN); } ``` Because `set()` replaces all existing values for the header, if a backend application sets a `Vary` header (such as `Vary: Authorization` or `Vary: Cookie`) to ensure that intermediate caches (like CDNs) cache responses separately per user, the `CorsHandler` will overwrite it with `Vary: origin`. This causes the caching proxy to ignore the authorization context and cache the response based solely on the URL and Origin, allowing an attacker to retrieve another user's cached sensitive data. ### Impact This is a Cache Poisoning vulnerability that leads to Information Disclosure. It impacts any Netty-based web application that uses the CorsHandler, sets its own Vary headers to manage caching of authenticated or user-specific responses (e.g., Vary: Authorization), and is deployed behind a caching proxy or CDN. The end-users of these applications are impacted, as their sensitive data may be leaked to unauthorized actors.
