Traefik < 3.6.10 HTTPRoute Rule Injection

medium Nessus Plugin ID 318669

Synopsis

The remote macOS host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of Traefik installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 3.6.10. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability:

- Traefik is an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. Prior to 3.6.10, A tenant with write access to an HTTPRoute resource can inject backtick-delimited rule tokens into Traefik's router rule language via unsanitized header or query parameter match values. In shared gateway deployments, this can bypass listener hostname constraints and redirect traffic for victim hostnames to attacker-controlled backends. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.6.10. (CVE-2026-29777)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Traefik version 3.6.10 or later.
