Description

A flaw was found in HAProxy. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP/3 request. The HTTP/3 parser fails to verify that the received body length matches the announced content-length when a stream is closed with an empty payload. This desynchronization with the backend server can lead to request smuggling, allowing an attacker to bypass security mechanisms and potentially access unauthorized resources.
