traefik 3.7.13: known vulnerabilities

Traefik before 2.11.58 and 3.7.14 TLS Config Bypass via NTLM/Kerberos Round Tripper

Traefik 2.11.0 before 2.11.58 and 3.0.0 before 3.7.14 stores its NTLM/Kerberos backend round tripper in a client-connection slot not keyed by ServersTransport, so one service's TLS client configuration is reused for another service's backend. An unauthenticated client can arm the slot via a backend issuing an NTLM or Negotiate challenge, then reach another service on the same keep-alive connection, bypassing its root CAs, server name, and certificate verification.

Traefik before 2.11.58 and 3.7.14 Race Condition in NTLM/Kerberos Round Tripper

Traefik 2.11.x before 2.11.58 and 3.x before 3.7.14 contains a race condition in NTLM and Kerberos (Negotiate) backend authentication, where the per-connection sticky round tripper slot is read and written without synchronization. Remote attackers can send concurrent HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 requests over one connection to orphan backend connections, break connection-bound authentication, or crash Traefik.

Traefik v3.7.0 before v3.7.14 mTLS Header Spoofing via Ingress-NGINX HTTP Router

Traefik from v3.7.0 before v3.7.14 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in its Kubernetes Ingress-NGINX provider that forwards client-supplied Ssl-Client-* headers on the plaintext HTTP router. When ssl-redirect is disabled alongside auth-tls-pass-certificate-to-upstream, unauthenticated attackers can send Ssl-Client-Verify: SUCCESS with a chosen certificate subject and issuer to impersonate mTLS identities.

Traefik before 2.11.58 and 3.7.14 Authentication Bypass via Negotiate Connection Pool

Traefik 2.11.0 before 2.11.58 and 3.0.0 before 3.7.14 contains an authentication bypass because a first request preauthenticated with an Authorization: Negotiate token authenticates a socket in the globally shared backend connection pool, which is never isolated. Unauthenticated attackers on separate frontend connections can be assigned that NTLM/Kerberos-bound socket and perform reads or writes with the victim's identity.

• Update to 3.7.14

Traefik v3.7.0 before v3.7.14 Client CA Mix-up via auth-tls-secret Name Collision

Traefik v3.7.0 before v3.7.14 contains an improper authentication vulnerability in the Kubernetes Ingress NGINX provider that merges client CAs when auth-tls-secret names collide after dot-to-dash normalization. Attackers holding certificates from another host's CA can access a host requiring its own client CA, while that host's legitimate clients are refused.

• Update to 3.7.14

Traefik v3.2.0 before v3.7.14 FastProxy NTLM/Negotiate Connection Pool Identity Leak

Traefik from v3.2.0 before v3.7.14 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the experimental FastProxy connection pool, which fails to pin NTLM/Negotiate-authenticated backend connections to their frontend connection. Unauthenticated clients can be handed a pooled keep-alive backend connection where a victim completed an NTLM or Negotiate handshake, letting them read victim data and act as that victim.

• Update to 3.7.14

Traefik v3.7.13 Authentication Bypass via ssl-passthrough Ingress HTTP Router

Traefik v3.7.13 before v3.7.14 contains an access-control bypass in the Kubernetes Ingress NGINX provider, where the HTTP router generated for ssl-passthrough Ingresses on non-TLS entry points never applies the Ingress's access-control annotations. Unauthenticated attackers reaching the HTTP entry point with the Ingress host can access backends protected by auth-type, auth-url, or whitelist-source-range annotations, with nothing logged.

• Update to 3.7.14

Traefik before v2.11.58 and v3.7.14 SNI Check Bypass via HTTP/2 Scheme

Traefik before v2.11.58 and v3.7.14 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in its SNI check, which is skipped when request TLS state is nil. Unauthenticated clients can send HTTP/2 requests with the :scheme http pseudo-header over TLS on Go 1.27 builds to reach routers requiring client certificates without presenting one.

• Update to 3.7.14

Traefik before v2.11.56 Identity Spoofing via Header Alias

Traefik is an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. In Traefik v1.x, v2.x through v2.11.55, and v3.0.0 through v3.7.11, header names are canonicalized only on dashes, so X-Auth-User, X_Auth_User and X.Auth.User are treated as three distinct headers by Traefik, while backends that derive variable names from header names (CGI, WSGI, PHP, NGINX and others) collapse them into a single variable. A client can therefore smuggle a dot-form alias of a header that Traefik manages past the middleware managing it — for example supplying X.Authenticated.User alongside the canonical X-Authenticated-User written by the ForwardAuth middleware — causing such

Traefik v2.8.2 through v3.6 HTTP/3 Timeout Bypass

Traefik is an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. In versions >= v2.8.2 through <= v2.11.55 and >= v3.0.0 through <= v3.7.11, the entryPoints.<name>.transport.respondingTimeouts settings — notably readTimeout, which is enabled by default at 60s — are not applied to the HTTP/3 request path. readTimeout is enforced as a deadline on the underlying TCP connection, which cannot be applied to a QUIC stream, and Traefik's HTTP/3 server is constructed without any timeout. As a result, on entry points with HTTP/3 enabled, an unauthenticated remote client that trickles request body bytes can hold a request open indefinitely and, with it, one upstream

Traefik v3.7.0 Authentication Bypass via from-to-www-redirect

Traefik is a HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. In versions >= v3.7.0 and <= v3.7.11, the Kubernetes ingress-nginx provider mishandles Ingresses that carry both an authentication annotation and the nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/from-to-www-redirect annotation. For such Ingresses the provider creates an additional 'sibling' router that matches on the host alone, carries only the RedirectRegex middleware, and still points at the parent router's protected backend service. Because RedirectRegex is not a terminal handler, a request its pattern does not match is forwarded to the backend, and because the redirect pattern only accepts a numeric port
