CVE-2026-6733

Impact

Undici's HTTP/1.1 client is vulnerable to response queue poisoning on reused keep-alive sockets. An attacker-controlled upstream server can inject an unsolicited HTTP/1.1 response onto an idle socket after a request completes. When the client dispatches the next request on that socket, it associates the injected response with the new request, causing responses to be delivered to the wrong requests.

This requires an attacker-controlled or compromised upstream HTTP/1.1 server and keep-alive connection reuse.

Patches

Upgrade to undici v6.27.0, v7.28.0 or v8.5.0.

Workarounds

Disable keep-alive connection reuse by setting keepAliveTimeout: 0 on the Client or Pool.
