A flaw was found in Envoy. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit a null pointer dereference vulnerability in the router filter. This occurs when handling HTTP 303 (See Other) internal redirects for body-less non-GET/HEAD requests. By sending a POST, PUT, DELETE, or PATCH request without a body to a specially configured route, and if the upstream responds with HTTP 303, the Envoy process will crash. This leads to a complete denial of service, terminating all active connections. envoy: Envoy: Null pointer deref in internal redirects Moderate: An unauthenticated attacker can trigger a denial of service in Envoy. This is due to a null pointer dereference when handling HTTP 303 internal redirects for body-less non-GET/HEAD requests, leading to a crash of the Envoy process. This vulnerability affects Envoy deployments configured with an internal redirect policy that includes HTTP 303 in `redirect_response_codes`.
