What is CVE-2025-64527?

A vulnerability exists in Envoy Proxy that can lead to a service crash when JWT authentication is utilized with remote JWKS fetching. Specifically, if multiple JWT tokens are present in the request headers and allow_missing_or_failed is enabled, a failure during JWKS fetch can trigger a series of processing errors. The issue originates from a re-entry bug in the JwksFetcherImpl, which mishandles the state of the fetch operation when the initial token’s JWKS fetch fails. This mismanagement can lead to significant service interruptions, impacting stability for users relying on this powerful edge proxy technology.
