Description
A flaw was found in fast-uri. This component improperly serializes the port component of a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) without validating its content. A remote attacker can exploit this by crafting a malicious port value that injects authority delimiters. This manipulation can demote the intended host to user information and redirect the authority to an attacker-controlled host, leading to information disclosure as applications interpret the attacker's host as legitimate.
Statement
This is an Important flaw. Applications utilizing the fast-uri library in Red Hat environments are susceptible to authority injection if they process untrusted data as the port component of a URI. This could allow an attacker to redirect network traffic to an arbitrary host, compromising communication integrity.
