Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability exists in NGINX OSS and NGINX Plus when configured to proxy to upstream Transport Layer Security (TLS) servers. An attacker with a man-in-the-middle (MITM) position on the upstream server side-along with conditions beyond the attacker's control-may be able to inject plain text data into the response from an upstream proxied server. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
AnalysisAI
NGINX proxy configurations forwarding traffic to upstream TLS servers can be exploited by network-positioned attackers to inject unencrypted data into proxied responses, potentially compromising data integrity. This vulnerability affects NGINX OSS, NGINX Plus, and related products when specific upstream server conditions are present. No patch is currently available for this medium-severity issue.
Technical ContextAI
Affects Nginx Gateway Fabric. A vulnerability exists in NGINX OSS and NGINX Plus when configured to proxy to upstream Transport Layer Security (TLS) servers. An attacker with a man-in-the-middle (MITM) position on the upstream server side—along with conditions beyond the attacker's control—may be able to inject plain text data into the response from an upstream proxied server. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
RemediationAI
Monitor vendor advisories for a patch. Restrict network access to the affected service where possible.
