CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N

Description

## Impact The `setCookie` function has two attribute injection paths. `validateCookieDomain` does not reject semicolons (`validateCookiePath` already does at 0x3B), so a `domain` value like `example.com; SameSite=None` lands verbatim as `Domain=example.com; SameSite=None`. The `unparsed` array's loop only checks each entry contains `=` and does not sanitize values, so an entry like `X-Custom=val; HttpOnly` lands unchanged, injecting `HttpOnly` without the caller setting `cookie.httpOnly = true`. Applications that pass user-controlled input to these fields, typically multi-tenant or reverse-proxy servers that scope session cookies to a tenant-supplied domain, can have SameSite CSRF protections bypassed, `Secure` or `HttpOnly` forced or stripped, or the intended SameSite tier overridden. ## Patches Patched in undici v6.28.0, v7.29.0, and v8.9.0. ## Workarounds - Sanitize `domain` values against the RFC 1034 letter-digit-hyphen set before passing to `setCookie`. - Do not pass user-controlled data to the `unparsed` field.
