What is CVE-2026-93579?
A flaw in the validation of HTTP/2 header field values within Netty allows remote attackers to inject disallowed characters such as NUL, Line Feed, and Carriage Return. This weakness can be exploited when transitioning requests from HTTP/2 to HTTP/1.1, potentially enabling attackers to execute request smuggling, header injection, or response splitting attacks. The consequences could include unauthorized access to sensitive data, manipulation of user inputs, or other significant security threats.
