Recent HAProxy Security Vulnerabilities
| CVE | Date | Vulnerability | Products |
|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2026-55204 | Jun 18, 2026 |
HAProxy 3.4.0 Null Pointer Deref in hpack_dht_insert() DoSHAProxy through 3.4.0, fixed in commit 9a6d1fe, contains a null pointer dereference vulnerability in hpack_dht_insert() within src/hpack-tbl.c that fails to validate the return value of hpack_dht_defrag() when the memory pool is exhausted. An attacker can trigger HPACK dynamic table insertions under memory pressure to dereference a NULL pointer and crash HAProxy worker processes, causing denial of service. |

| CVE-2026-55203 | Jun 18, 2026 |
HAProxy <3.4.0 Integer Overflow in FastCGI Conn drl FieldHAProxy through 3.4.0, fixed in commit 5985276, contains an integer overflow vulnerability in the fcgi_conn structure's drl field that allows buffer misparse as new FCGI record headers. When contentLength is 65535 and paddingLength is 1 or more, the drl field wraps to 0, causing incorrect record consumption and allowing malicious FastCGI backends to desynchronize the FCGI framing parser, potentially causing request routing errors, response smuggling, or memory safety issues. |

| CVE-2026-33555 | Apr 13, 2026 |
HAProxy <3.3.6 HTTP/3 Parser Desynchronization & Request SmugglingAn issue was discovered in HAProxy before 3.3.6. The HTTP/3 parser does not check that the received body length matches a previously announced content-length when the stream is closed via a frame with an empty payload. This can cause desynchronization issues with the backend server and could be used for request smuggling. The earliest affected version is 2.6. |

| CVE-2025-11230 | Nov 19, 2025 |
HAProxy mjson Denial-of-Service via Designed JSON (CVE-2025-11230)Inefficient algorithm complexity in mjson in HAProxy allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via specially crafted JSON requests. |
|
| CVE-2025-59303 | Oct 08, 2025 |
HAProxy K8s Ingress Controller <3.1.13 config-snippets YML InjectionHAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller before 3.1.13, when the config-snippets feature flag is used, accepts config snippets from users with create/update permissions. This can result in obtaining an ingress token secret as a response. The fixed versions of HAProxy Enterprise Kubernetes Ingress Controller are 3.0.16-ee1, 1.11.13-ee1, and 1.9.15-ee1. |
|
| CVE-2025-32464 | Apr 09, 2025 |
HAProxy 2.2-3.1.6 Heap Buffer Overflow in sample_conv_regsubHAProxy 2.2 through 3.1.6, in certain uncommon configurations, has a sample_conv_regsub heap-based buffer overflow because of mishandling of the replacement of multiple short patterns with a longer one. |
|
| CVE-2024-53008 | Nov 28, 2024 |
CVE-2024-53008: HAProxy HTTP SM bypasses ACLsInconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling') issue exists in HAProxy. If this vulnerability is exploited, a remote attacker may access a path that is restricted by ACL (Access Control List) set on the product. As a result, the attacker may obtain sensitive information. |
|
| CVE-2024-49214 | Oct 14, 2024 |
QUIC IP List Bypass in HAProxy 3.1-dev<7, 3.0<5, 2.9<11QUIC in HAProxy 3.1.x before 3.1-dev7, 3.0.x before 3.0.5, and 2.9.x before 2.9.11 allows opening a 0-RTT session with a spoofed IP address. This can bypass the IP allow/block list functionality. |
|
| CVE-2024-45506 | Sep 04, 2024 |
Remote DoS via H2_send Loop in HAProxy 2.9.x<2.9.10, 3.0.x<3.0.4, 3.1.x<3.1-dev6HAProxy 2.9.x before 2.9.10, 3.0.x before 3.0.4, and 3.1.x through 3.1-dev6 allows a remote denial of service for HTTP/2 zero-copy forwarding (h2_send loop) under a certain set of conditions, as exploited in the wild in 2024. |
|
| CVE-2023-45539 | Nov 28, 2023 |
HAProxy <2.8.2 Accepts # in URI, Risk of Path MisinterpretationHAProxy before 2.8.2 accepts # as part of the URI component, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or have unspecified other impact upon misinterpretation of a path_end rule, such as routing index.html#.png to a static server. |
