Netty HTTP/2 CONNECT Host Header Exploit Bypass Tunnel Allow-List
CVE-2026-93567 Published on September 18, 2026

Io.netty/netty-codec-http2: http/1 authority-form connect is translated to malformed http/2 connect with host-controlled :authority
A flaw was found in Netty's HTTP/2 codec. When converting HTTP/1 CONNECT requests to HTTP/2, the component incorrectly uses the Host header instead of the CONNECT authority-form request-target for the tunnel authority. A remote attacker can exploit this by supplying a different Host header, leading to a malformed HTTP/2 CONNECT request. This can bypass security controls such as tunnel allow-lists or egress policies, resulting in integrity loss.
