DescriptionNVD

Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision vulnerability in mtrudel bandit allows unauthenticated transport-state spoofing on plaintext HTTP connections.

'Elixir.Bandit.Pipeline':determine_scheme/2 in lib/bandit/pipeline.ex returns the client-supplied URI scheme verbatim, ignoring the transport's secure? flag. HTTP/1.1 absolute-form request targets (e.g. GET https://victim/path HTTP/1.1) and the HTTP/2 :scheme pseudo-header are both attacker-controlled strings that flow through this function. Over a plaintext TCP connection, a client can declare https and Bandit will set conn.scheme = :https even though no TLS was negotiated.

Downstream Plug consumers that branch on conn.scheme are silently misled: Plug.SSL's already-secure branch skips its HTTP→HTTPS redirect, cookies emitted with secure: true are sent over plaintext, audit logs record requests as having arrived over HTTPS, and CSRF/SameSite gating may make incorrect decisions.

This issue affects bandit: from 1.0.0 before 1.11.0.

AnalysisAI

Transport-state spoofing in Bandit 1.0.0 through 1.10.x allows unauthenticated remote attackers to forge HTTPS connections over plaintext HTTP by supplying a malicious URI scheme in HTTP/1.1 absolute-form request targets or HTTP/2 :scheme pseudo-headers. The vulnerable determine_scheme/2 function returns client-supplied scheme values verbatim, causing downstream Plug middlewares to make incorrect security decisions: Plug.SSL skips HTTP→HTTPS redirects, secure cookies are transmitted unencrypted, and CSRF/SameSite protections may be bypassed. …
