Echo: io.netty:netty-codec-http: security update to 4.1.129.Final

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 458014

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. In versions prior to 4.1.129.Final
and 4.2.8.Final, the `io.netty.handler.codec.http.HttpRequestEncoder` has a CRLF injection with the
request URI when constructing a request. This leads to request smuggling when `HttpRequestEncoder` is used
without proper sanitization of the URI. Any application / framework using `HttpRequestEncoder` can be
subject to be abused to perform request smuggling using CRLF injection. Versions 4.1.129.Final and
4.2.8.Final fix the issue. (CVE-2025-67735)

Solution

Update the io.netty:netty-codec-http library and its related packages to version 4.1.129.Final or later.
