CVE-2026-33637
GHSA-5rv5-xj5j-3484 |
| Summary | Faraday has a possible incomplete fix for GHSA-33mh-2634-fwr2 - protocol-relative URI objects still bypass host scoping ## Summary `Faraday::Connection#build_exclusive_url` still allows protocol-relative host override when the request target is provided as a `URI` object instead of a `String`. This bypasses the February 2026 fix for `GHSA-33mh-2634-fwr2` and can redirect a request built from a fixed-base `Faraday::Connection` to an attacker-controlled host while preserving connection-scoped headers such as `Authorization`. ## Supporting Materials - Existing advisory for the original string-based issue: GHSA-33mh-2634-fwr2 - Existing CVE for the original string-based issue: CVE-2026-25765 - Existing regression tests for the string-only fix: - spec/faraday/connection_spec.rb:314-345 - Existing test proving supported URI request input: - spec/faraday/request_spec.rb:26-31 ## Impact The direct consequence is off-host request forgery from code paths that believe they are constrained to a fixed base URL. If the connection carries default headers or query parameters, those values are forwarded to the attacker-selected host. |
