Lifecycle Timeline
4Description
Traefik is an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. Versions 2.11.40 and below, 3.0.0-beta1 through 3.6.11, and 3.7.0-ea.1 are vulnerable to mTLS bypass through the TLS SNI pre-sniffing logic related to fragmented ClientHello packets. When a TLS ClientHello is fragmented across multiple records, Traefik's SNI extraction may fail with an EOF and return an empty SNI. The TCP router then falls back to the default TLS configuration, which does not require client certificates by default. This allows an attacker to bypass route-level mTLS enforcement and access services that should require mutual TLS authentication. This issue is patched in versions 2.11.41, 3.6.11 and 3.7.0-ea.2.
Analysis
Traefik reverse proxy and load balancer contains an mTLS authentication bypass vulnerability that allows attackers to circumvent mutual TLS certificate requirements by sending fragmented TLS ClientHello packets. Affected versions include Traefik 2.11.40 and below, 3.0.0-beta1 through 3.6.10, and 3.7.0-ea.1. …

Remediation
Within 24 hours: inventory all Traefik instances and their versions; assess which services are protected by mTLS authentication; activate enhanced monitoring for TLS connection anomalies. Within 7 days: implement network segmentation to restrict access to protected services; enable WAF rules to detect fragmented TLS ClientHello packets; coordinate with affected service owners on exposure scope. …
