What is CVE-2025-46821?

Envoy Proxy's URI template matcher exhibits a flaw that inadequately validates the * character within URI paths. Before the fixed versions, URIs containing this character would not comply with URI template expressions, potentially leading to unauthorized access through the bypass of role-based access control (RBAC) rules. This vulnerability emphasizes the importance of configuring additional permissions using url_path with a safe_regex expression as a workaround. The issue has been rectified in Envoy versions 1.34.1, 1.33.3, 1.32.6, and 1.31.8.
