Description

## Impact undici's cookie parser in `parseSetCookie` percent-decodes cookie values via `qsUnescape`, turning encoded sequences like `%0D%0A`, `%00`, `%3B`, and `%3D` into their literal byte equivalents. RFC 6265 §5.4 does not specify any decoding and browsers do not decode either. Applications that parse a `Set-Cookie` header and then forward the parsed value into a response header (proxies, middleware, SSR frameworks) become vulnerable to HTTP response header injection: an attacker-controlled upstream can inject arbitrary `Set-Cookie`, `Location`, or `Cache-Control` headers into the application's downstream response, enabling session fixation, open redirect, or cache poisoning. Affected applications are those that use undici's cookie parsing (`parseSetCookie`, `parseCookie`, `getSetCookies`) and forward the parsed cookie value into a response header. This was introduced in undici 7.0.0 via [#3789](https://github.com/nodejs/undici/pull/3789). ## Patches Upgrade to undici v6.27.0, v7.28.0 or v8.5.0. ## Workarounds If upgrade is not immediately possible, do not forward values returned by `parseSetCookie`/`parseCookie`/`getSetCookies` directly into response headers; sanitize the value first to strip or reject CR, LF, NUL, `;`, and `=` bytes.
