CVE-2026-9658
Last modified
CVE-2026-9658 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Plack::Middleware::Security::Common versions before 0.13.1 for Perl did not block header injections in request paths. The header injection rule was ineffective at blocking header injections in the request paths unless they were double-encoded, for example, GET /path\r\nHTTP/1.1\r\nHost: secret.example.com Note that it is unclear whether request paths with CRLF followed by additional headers would be blocked by reverse proxies, or how they would be processed by Plack-based servers.. EPSS estimates a 0.23% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
