Summary
A vulnerability in @fastify/reply-from (up to v12.6.1) and @fastify/http-proxy (up to v11.4.3) allows attackers to strip proxy-added headers after they have been added, by manipulating the Connection header. Clients can selectively remove headers used for routing, access control, or security.
Risk Assessment
Attackers can bypass security mechanisms and access controls based on proxy-added headers, potentially leading to unauthorized access or traffic manipulation.
Recommendation
Upgrade @fastify/reply-from to version 12.6.2 or later and @fastify/http-proxy to version 11.4.4 or later immediately.
Other vulnerabilities in @fastify/reply-from
See all- CVE-2026-117518High
@fastify/reply-from versions up to and including 12.8.0 validate proxy paths only against forward-slash dot-segments, then build the target with the WHATWG URL parser, which normalizes backslash and its percent-encoded form to a forward slash. A path using backslash dot-segments bypasses the traversal check and resolves to a different upstream path. An unauthenticated request can escape the intended prefix and reach other upstream endpoints.
- CVE-2026-107318High
@fastify/reply-from is a Fastify plugin that forwards requests to an upstream HTTP or HTTPS server. In versions prior to 12.7.0, all of the built-in HTTPS transports override the secure default and set rejectUnauthorized to false, so the proxy does not verify the TLS certificate of the upstream even when the application points it at an https upstream in the default configuration. An on-path network attacker can therefore impersonate the configured HTTPS upstream, read the credentials and request bodies the proxy forwards, and return forged responses that the application trusts. The issue is fixed in @fastify/reply-from 12.7.0, and users should upgrade to 12.7.0 or later. As a workaround, pass an explicit rejectUnauthorized true on the transport, supply an already configured undici instance, or use the undici global agent.
- CVE-2026-16158High
Vulnerability in @fastify/reply-from versions 8.3.1 up to but not including 12.6.4. The internal URL cache key is built by concatenating the destination and source path without a delimiter, leading to key collisions and requests being routed to the wrong upstream, enabling cross-upstream data access and modification.
- CVE-2025-66415Medium
Prior to version 12.5.0, the fastify-reply-from plugin allows an attacker to access routes that are not allowed by crafting a malicious URL, even though reply.from is defined for specific routes.
Original NVD description (English source)
@fastify/reply-from v12.6.1 and earlier and @fastify/http-proxy v11.4.3 and earlier process the client's Connection header after the proxy has added its own headers via rewriteRequestHeaders. This allows attackers to retroactively strip proxy-added headers from upstream requests by listing them in the Connection header value. Any header added by the proxy for routing, access control, or security purposes can be selectively removed by a client. @fastify/http-proxy is also affected as it delegates to @fastify/reply-from. Upgrade to @fastify/reply-from v12.6.2 or @fastify/http-proxy v11.4.4 or later.
