Description

Undici is an HTTP/1.1 client for Node.js. Starting with version 2.0.0 and prior to version 5.19.1, the undici library does not protect `host` HTTP header from CRLF injection vulnerabilities. This issue is patched in Undici v5.19.1. As a workaround, sanitize the `headers.host` string before passing to undici.

Weaknesses (CWE)

  • CWE-93 — Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences
  • CWE-74 — Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component
