fast-uri is a URI parser for Node.js. Its custom parser for bracketed IPv6 literals does not validate the complete IPv6 grammar, so invalid trailing text in an authority can be silently discarded and a malformed attacker-controlled host is turned into a different valid IPv6 destination. For example, a bracketed literal with invalid trailing characters is normalized to the unspecified address, which a Node HTTP client then connects to a local service over loopback, and other malformed literals collapse to private-range addresses. No error is set on the parsed result, so an application checking the error field cannot detect the rewrite. An application that normalizes untrusted URLs before outbound requests, redirects, proxy routing, or address-policy enforcement can be redirected to a local or private IPv6 target, giving a server-side request forgery and address-policy bypass primitive. The affected versions are 2.3.1 up to but not including 2.4.5, 3.0.0 up to but not including 3.1.6, and 4.0.0 up to but not including 4.1.3. The issue is fixed in 2.4.5, 3.1.6, and 4.1.3, which validate bracketed IP literals against the full grammar and mark malformed literals as authority errors. Users should upgrade to a patched version.

AnalysisAI
Server-side request forgery and address-policy bypass in fast-uri, the Node.js URI parser used widely in the fastify ecosystem, allows remote unauthenticated attackers to redirect outbound requests from a target application to local or private IPv6 addresses by submitting crafted bracketed IPv6 literals with invalid trailing characters. The custom IPv6 parser silently normalizes malformed literals - collapsing some to the unspecified address (loopback) and others to private-range addresses - and returns no error on the parsed result, defeating any application-level error checking. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the target application (1) uses fast-uri in an affected version (2.3.1-2.4.4, 3.0.0-3.1.5, or 4.0.0-4.1.2), (2) processes attacker-controlled input that can include a URL with a bracketed IPv6 literal in the authority component, and (3) uses the parsed result to make an outbound network connection, issue a redirect, enforce an address policy, or route a proxy request. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N, score 7.5) captures the low-friction, network-exploitable nature of the flaw but rates confidentiality impact as None, which is conservative for an SSRF primitive - SSRF commonly enables reading internal service responses, suggesting at least partial confidentiality impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker submits a URL containing a crafted bracketed IPv6 literal - such as 'http://[::invalid]/' - to a Node.js application that uses fast-uri to normalize URLs before making outbound HTTP requests (for example, a webhook processor, an image proxy, or a redirect handler). fast-uri silently normalizes the malformed literal to a valid internal address (e.g., the unspecified address resolving to loopback), returns no error, and the application's Node.js HTTP client then connects to a local service such as a metadata endpoint, an admin API, or an internal database interface. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade fast-uri to a patched release: 2.4.5 (for the 2.x train), 3.1.6 (for the 3.x train), or 4.1.3 (for the 4.x train). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
