CVE-2026-32762

A flaw was found in Rack, a modular Ruby web server interface. This vulnerability arises from improper parsing of the RFC 7239 Forwarded header, where semicolons within quoted values are incorrectly interpreted as delimiters. An attacker can exploit this by crafting a malicious Forwarded header, potentially leading to the smuggling of host, protocol, or other parameters. This could allow for spoofing or bypassing security measures in deployments utilizing upstream proxies, Web Application Firewalls (WAFs), or other intermediaries.
