Traefik has a possible vulnerability with the path matchers in github.com/traefik/traefik

Open Source Vulnerabilities GHSA-6p68-w45g-48j7

## Impact There is a potential vulnerability in Traefik managing the requests using a `PathPrefix`, `Path` or `PathRegex` matcher. When Traefik is configured to route the requests to a backend using a matcher based on the path, if the URL contains a `/../` in its path, it’s possible to target a backend, exposed using another router, by-passing the middlewares chain. ## Example ```yaml apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1 kind: IngressRoute metadata: name: my-service spec: routes: - match: PathPrefix(‘/service’) kind: Rule services: - name: service-a port: 8080 middlewares: - name: my-middleware-a - match: PathPrefix(‘/service/sub-path’) kind: Rule services: - name: service-a port: 8080 ``` In such a case, the request `http://mydomain.example.com/service/sub-path/../other-path` will reach the backend `my-service-a` without operating the middleware `my-middleware-a` unless the computed path is `http://mydomain.example.com/service/other-path` and should be computes by the first router (operating `my-middleware-a`). ## Patches - https://github.com/traefik/traefik/releases/tag/v2.11.24 - https://github.com/traefik/traefik/releases/tag/v3.3.6 - https://github.com/traefik/traefik/releases/tag/v3.4.0-rc2 ## Workaround Add a `PathRegexp` rule to the matcher to prevent matching a route with a `/../` in the path. Example: ```yaml match: PathPrefix(`/service`) && !PathRegexp(`(?:(/\.\./)+.*)`) ``` ## For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please [open an issue](https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues).

Open Source Vulnerabilities CVE-2025-32431

Traefik (pronounced traffic) is an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. In versions prior to 2.11.24, 3.3.6, and 3.4.0-rc2. There is a potential vulnerability in Traefik managing the requests using a PathPrefix, Path or PathRegex matcher. When Traefik is configured to route the requests to a backend using a matcher based on the path, if the URL contains a /../ in its path, it’s possible to target a backend, exposed using another router, by-passing the middlewares chain. This issue has been patched in versions 2.11.24, 3.3.6, and 3.4.0-rc2. A workaround involves adding a `PathRegexp` rule to the matcher to prevent matching a route with a `/../` in the path.
