A flaw was found in Traefik, an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. When the `headerField` is configured with a non-canonical HTTP header name, an authenticated attacker can inject a canonical version of that header. This allows the attacker to impersonate any identity to the backend, leading to an authentication bypass. The backend prioritizes the attacker-injected header, overriding Traefik's intended header. github.com/traefik/traefik: Traefik: Authentication bypass via non-canonical HTTP header injection The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.
