GHSA-GHC4-35X6-CRW5
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-10 18:30 – Updated: 2026-04-13 17:291. Summary
The Envoy RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) filter contains a logic vulnerability in how it validates HTTP headers when multiple values are present for the same header name. Instead of validating each header value individually, Envoy concatenates all values into a single comma-separated string. This behavior allows attackers to bypass RBAC policies—specifically "Deny" rules—by sending duplicate headers, effectively obscuring the malicious value from exact-match mechanisms.
2. Attack Scenario
Consider an environment where an administrator wants to block external access to internal resources using a specific header flag.
Configuration
The Envoy proxy is configured with a Deny rule to reject requests containing the header internal: true.
* Rule Type: Exact Match
* Target: internal header must not equal true.
The Bypass Logic
-
Standard Request (Blocked):
- Input:
internal: true - Envoy Processing: Sees string
"true". - Result: Match found. Request Denied.
- Input:
-
Exploit Request (Bypassed):
- Input:
http internal: true internal: true - Envoy Processing: Concatenates values into
"true,true". - Matcher Evaluation: Does
"true,true"equal"true"? No. - Result: The Deny rule fails to trigger. Request Allowed.
- Input:
3. Implications
- RBAC Bypass: Remote attackers can bypass configured access controls.
- Unauthorized Access: Sensitive internal resources or administrative endpoints protected by header-based Deny rules become accessible.
- Risk: High, particularly for deployments relying on "Exact Match" strategies for security blocking.
4. Reproduction Steps
To verify this vulnerability:
- Deploy Envoy: Configure an instance with an RBAC Deny rule that performs an exact match on a specific header (e.g.,
internal: true). - Baseline Test: Send a request containing the header
internal: true.- Observation: Envoy blocks this request (HTTP 403).
- Exploit Test: Send a second request containing the same header twice:
http GET /restricted-resource HTTP/1.1 Host: example.com internal: true internal: true- Observation: Envoy allows the request, granting access to the resource.
6. Recommendations
Fix Header Validation Logic:
Modify the RBAC filter to validate each header value instance individually. Avoid relying on the concatenated string output of getAllOfHeaderAsString() for security-critical matching unless the matcher is explicitly designed to parse comma-separated lists.
** Examine the DENY role to use a Regex style fix.

Various rules can be configured to limit the types of updates that can be performed by a client, depending on the key used when sending the update request. Unfortunately, some rule types were not initially documented, and when documentation for them was added to the Administrator Reference Manual (ARM) in change #3112, the language that was added to the ARM at that time incorrectly described the behavior of two rule types, krb5-subdomain and ms-subdomain. This incorrect documentation could mislead operators into believing that policies they had configured were more restrictive than they actually were.

Mitigation
- Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
- Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
Mitigation MIT-4.4
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
- For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
- For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
- One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
