{"id":"CVE-2026-69216","state":"PUBLISHED","title":"Http4s: Ember chunk parser lenience (TE.TE request smuggling)","description":"Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services. Prior to 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47, Ember’s chunk decoder trims the chunk-size token and accepts leading plus or minus signs instead of requiring one or more hexadecimal digits followed by the required CRLF. When an intermediary forwards chunked data without re-encoding and interprets malformed chunk boundaries differently, an unauthenticated attacker can create TE.TE request smuggling that bypasses intermediary controls, poisons caches, or hijacks the request queue. The same response-path leniency can enable response smuggling against an ember-client used as a gateway when the upstream is malicious or compromised. This issue is fixed in versions 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47.","publishedAt":"2026-09-15T18:59:50.609Z","updatedAt":"2026-09-16T13:53:52.337Z","severity":{"score":5.4,"label":"Medium","version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","source":"GitHub_M"},"assigner":"GitHub_M","products":["http4s http4s"],"affected":[{"vendor":"http4s","product":"http4s","versions":[{"version":"< 0.23.35","status":"affected"},{"version":">= 1.0.0-M1, < 1.0.0-M47","status":"affected"}]}],"references":["https://github.com/http4s/http4s/security/advisories/GHSA-jrpm-956j-96jg","https://github.com/http4s/http4s/commit/d78612a5abd5a2547487598d3342be05573e16f0","https://github.com/http4s/http4s/releases/tag/v0.23.35","https://github.com/http4s/http4s/releases/tag/v1.0.0-M47"],"weaknesses":["CWE-444"],"ingestedAt":"2026-10-29T20:12:49.727Z","source":{"repository":"CVEProject/cvelistV5","path":"cves/2026/69xxx/CVE-2026-69216.json","commit":"556c9d3a8cd17e218bb8e452ba7cd619a384ff47"},"raw":{"dataType":"CVE_RECORD","dataVersion":"5.2","cveMetadata":{"cveId":"CVE-2026-69216","state":"PUBLISHED","datePublished":"2026-09-15T18:59:50.609Z","dateUpdated":"2026-09-16T13:53:52.337Z","assignerShortName":"GitHub_M","assignerOrgId":"a0819718-46f1-4df5-94e2-005712e83aaa","dateReserved":"2026-08-03T16:57:50.125Z"},"containers":{"cna":{"title":"Http4s: Ember chunk parser lenience (TE.TE request smuggling)","descriptions":[{"lang":"en","value":"Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services.
