ecosystem impact- 3 maven packages depend on org.http4s:http4s-ember-core_2.12 (2 direct, 1 indirect)
Ecosystem-wide dependent count for version 0.23.35.
DescriptionCVE.org
Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services. Prior to 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47, DigestAuth replay protection records lastNc plus one instead of the highest nonce-count value it has accepted. When a legitimate client sends noncontiguous nc values because of parallel or retried requests, the stored counter remains below the accepted maximum, allowing a passive observer to replay a captured Authorization header multiple times. Successful replays execute authenticated requests, including state-changing operations, as the captured user. This issue is fixed in versions 0.23.35 and 1.0.0-M47.
AnalysisAI
DigestAuth replay protection in http4s mishandles the nonce-count it stores, so the server's counter can lag behind the highest value it has actually accepted; a passive network observer who captures one legitimate Digest Authorization header can therefore replay it repeatedly before the counter catches up. Successful replays are executed as the captured user and include state-changing requests, defeating the replay resistance that Digest authentication is supposed to provide over Basic auth. …
