HTTP/1 server crash due to MaxBytesReader header race in net/http
For HTTP/1 servers, when MaxBytesReader's limit is exceeded, "Connection: close" header is automatically set without synchronization, which might race with another header being set explicitly in the server handler. As a result, an HTTP/1 server that utilizes …

HTTP/2 server crash due to HPACK encoder race in net/http
HTTP/2 servers could end up crashing due to inadvertently modifying its HPACK encoder concurrently. This happens because the server modifies the HPACK encoder from two goroutines without synchronization: one uses the encoder to encode a HEADERS frame as part …

HTTP/1 server connection desynchronization after 2xx CONNECT response in net/http
When an HTTP server handler sends a 2xx response to an HTTP/1 CONNECT request and returns without hijacking the connection, the server improperly continues to read and serve requests from the connection. Since a 2xx response to an HTTP/1 CONNECT converts the …

High 7.5
Lack of limit on size of parsed Range headers in net/http
When parsing a Range header containing a large number of small ranges, FileServer(FS), ServeContent, and ServeFile(FS) can consume an excessive amount of CPU.

High 7.5
HTTP/2 transport accepts malformed framing-related headers in net/http
Historically, we have been rather lax about malformed framing-related headers in our HTTP/2 implementation, as they cannot interfere with HTTP/2 framing. However, this makes it possible for our HTTP/2 implementation to forward responses containing such header…

Critical 9.1
Double flow control refund on HTTP/2 server streams in net/http
The HTTP/2 server can refund connection-level flow control twice for the same data: Once when a client resets a stream (refunding data for any sent-but-unread portion of the stream), and again when a request handler reads the buffered data. A malicious client…

High 7.5
Excessive CPU consumption from repeated initial window changes in net/http
A malicious HTTP/2 peer can cause excessive CPU consumption in the client or server by opening a large number of streams and then sending many small SETTINGS frames containing SETTINGS_INITIAL_WINDOW_SIZE values.

High 7.5
HTTP/1 client connection desynchronization after CONNECT rejection in net/http
When http.Transport sends an HTTP/1 CONNECT request with a non-empty Request.Body, it writes the body directly to the connection without framing after the request headers. If the server rejects the CONNECT request with a non-2xx keep-alive response, Transport…

High 7.5
HTTP/2 server memory exhaustion due to Trailer headers in net/http
When "Trailer" headers are sent by a client, the HTTP server internally uses the header values to populate the Request.Trailer map passed to the server handler. Because Request.Trailer is a map, each entry incurs memory overhead. For HTTP/2 servers, a malicio…

High 7.5
Apply ReadHeaderTimeout when doing unencrypted HTTP/2 check in net/http
When a server is configured to support unencrypted HTTP/2, it reads a few bytes from each new connection to see if they contain the HTTP/2 client preface. ReadHeaderTimeout is unexpectedly not being applied when doing this.

Critical 9.6
Invoking failure to reject ASCII-only Punycode-encoded labels in golang.org/x/net/idna
The ToASCII and ToUnicode functions incorrectly accept Punycode-encoded labels that decode to an ASCII-only label. For example, ToUnicode("xn--example-.com") incorrectly returns the name "example.com" rather than an error. This behavior can lead to privilege …

High 7.5
Infinite loop in HTTP/2 transport when given bad SETTINGS_MAX_FRAME_SIZE in net/http/internal/http2 in golang.org/x/net
When processing HTTP/2 SETTINGS frames, transport will enter an infinite loop of writing CONTINUATION frames if it receives a SETTINGS_MAX_FRAME_SIZE with a value of 0.

Lack of limit when parsing cookies can cause memory exhaustion in net/http
Despite HTTP headers having a default limit of 1MB, the number of cookies that can be parsed does not have a limit. By sending a lot of very small cookies such as "a=;", an attacker can make an HTTP server allocate a large amount of structs, causing large mem…

CrossOriginProtection insecure bypass patterns not limited to exact matches in net/http
When using http.CrossOriginProtection, the AddInsecureBypassPattern method can unexpectedly bypass more requests than intended. CrossOriginProtection then skips validation, but forwards the original request path, which may be served by a different handler wit…

Sensitive headers not cleared on cross-origin redirect in net/http
Proxy-Authorization and Proxy-Authenticate headers persisted on cross-origin redirects potentially leaking sensitive information.

Medium 4.4CVE-2025-22870 Public exploit
HTTP Proxy bypass using IPv6 Zone IDs in golang.org/x/net
Matching of hosts against proxy patterns can improperly treat an IPv6 zone ID as a hostname component. For example, when the NO_PROXY environment variable is set to "*.example.com", a request to "[::1%25.example.com]:80` will incorrectly match and not be prox…

Sensitive headers incorrectly sent after cross-domain redirect in net/http
The HTTP client drops sensitive headers after following a cross-domain redirect. For example, a request to a.com/ containing an Authorization header which is redirected to b.com/ will not send that header to b.com. In the event that the client received a subs…

Denial of service due to improper 100-continue handling in net/http
The net/http HTTP/1.1 client mishandled the case where a server responds to a request with an "Expect: 100-continue" header with a non-informational (200 or higher) status. This mishandling could leave a client connection in an invalid state, where the next r…

High 7.5
HTTP/2 CONTINUATION flood in net/http
An attacker may cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data by sending an excessive number of CONTINUATION frames. Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a reques…

Incorrect forwarding of sensitive headers and cookies on HTTP redirect in net/http
When following an HTTP redirect to a domain which is not a subdomain match or exact match of the initial domain, an http.Client does not forward sensitive headers such as "Authorization" or "Cookie". For example, a redirect from foo.com to www.foo.com will fo…

High 7.5CVE-2023-39325 Public exploit
HTTP/2 rapid reset can cause excessive work in net/http
A malicious HTTP/2 client which rapidly creates requests and immediately resets them can cause excessive server resource consumption. While the total number of requests is bounded by the http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting, resetting an in-progress requ…

Unscored —CVE-2023-29406 Public exploit
Insufficient sanitization of Host header in net/http
The HTTP/1 client does not fully validate the contents of the Host header. A maliciously crafted Host header can inject additional headers or entire requests. With fix, the HTTP/1 client now refuses to send requests containing an invalid Request.Host or Reque…

Denial of service via crafted HTTP/2 stream in net/http and golang.org/x/net
A maliciously crafted HTTP/2 stream could cause excessive CPU consumption in the HPACK decoder, sufficient to cause a denial of service from a small number of small requests.

Excessive memory growth in net/http and golang.org/x/net/http2
An attacker can cause excessive memory growth in a Go server accepting HTTP/2 requests. HTTP/2 server connections contain a cache of HTTP header keys sent by the client. While the total number of entries in this cache is capped, an attacker sending very large…

Restricted file access on Windows in os and net/http
On Windows, restricted files can be accessed via os.DirFS and http.Dir. The os.DirFS function and http.Dir type provide access to a tree of files rooted at a given directory. These functions permit access to Windows device files under that root. For example, …

Exposure of client IP addresses in net/http
Improper exposure of client IP addresses in net/http before Go 1.17.12 and Go 1.18.4 can be triggered by calling httputil.ReverseProxy.ServeHTTP with a Request.Header map containing a nil value for the X-Forwarded-For header, which causes ReverseProxy to set …

Improper sanitization of Transfer-Encoding headers in net/http
Acceptance of some invalid Transfer-Encoding headers in the HTTP/1 client in net/http before Go 1.17.12 and Go 1.18.4 allows HTTP request smuggling if combined with an intermediate server that also improperly fails to reject the header as invalid.
