MEDIUMCVSS 5.8/10

Last modified

CVE-2026-93682 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.8/10 on the CVSS scale. When the HTTP stream wrapper follows a redirect and the response carries a Location header with an empty value, the redirect code reads one byte past the end of the heap buffer holding the location. The value of that out-of-bounds byte decides which redirect target is built, so a malicious server controls whether the client is sent to the host root or to the current directory..
