Ecosystem-wide dependent count for version 7.0.0.

DescriptionNVD

undici does not validate the type property of a duck-typed blob-like request body before using it as the Content-Type header on the HTTP/1.1 dispatcher. In undici before 6.28.0, from 7.0.0 up to before 7.29.0, and from 8.0.0 up to before 8.9.0, an application that passes a hand-rolled blob-like body (via request, stream, pipeline, or dispatch) whose type is derived from untrusted input allows an attacker to inject CRLF sequences and append arbitrary HTTP headers, potentially smuggling a second request past the upstream. Native Blob objects are safe because their constructor strips CRLF from the type, and fetch is unaffected because it validates headers, but ecosystem libraries that build duck-typed blob shapes from user input can reach the vulnerable path. This is the same defect class as CVE-2022-35948 and CVE-2026-1527, on a header sink that the earlier fixes did not cover. The issue is fixed in undici 6.28.0, 7.29.0, and 8.9.0.

AnalysisAI

CRLF injection in undici's HTTP/1.1 dispatcher enables HTTP header injection and potential request smuggling when applications pass duck-typed blob-like bodies whose type property is populated from untrusted input. Affected are the 6.x branch before 6.28.0, all 7.x releases from 7.0.0 through 7.28.x, and all 8.x releases from 8.0.0 through 8.8.x, when callers use the request, stream, pipeline, or dispatch APIs with hand-rolled blob-shaped objects rather than native Blob instances or the fetch API. An attacker who controls the type value can append arbitrary HTTP headers to the outgoing request, potentially smuggling a second request past an upstream proxy or server. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and KEV status is not confirmed in the provided data.

Technical ContextAI

undici (cpe:2.3:a:undici:undici:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is the HTTP/1.1 client library that underpins Node.js's native fetch implementation and is widely consumed across the Node.js ecosystem both directly and through wrapper libraries. The root cause (CWE-93: Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences) is that the HTTP/1.1 dispatcher reads the type property of any blob-like body object and writes it verbatim into the outgoing Content-Type header without stripping carriage-return or line-feed characters. Native Blob objects are not affected because the Blob constructor already sanitises CRLF from type strings at construction time, and the fetch API is separately protected by its own header validation layer. The vulnerable sink is reached only when application code or an ecosystem library constructs a plain-object duck-typed blob from external data and passes it directly to one of undici's lower-level dispatch APIs. The defect class is identical to CVE-2022-35948 and CVE-2026-1527; this instance covers a header sink that the earlier remediations did not address.

RemediationAI

Upgrade undici to the patched release for the in-use branch: 6.28.0 for 6.x consumers, 7.29.0 for 7.x consumers, or 8.9.0 for 8.x consumers, as confirmed by the vendor advisory at https://github.com/nodejs/undici/security/advisories/GHSA-m8rv-5g2x-5cg5. If an immediate upgrade is blocked, the safest short-term workaround is to replace duck-typed blob-shaped objects with native Blob instances (new Blob([data], { type: contentType })), whose constructor strips CRLF automatically, before passing them to undici; this eliminates the vulnerable path without requiring CRLF sanitisation logic at every call site. Alternatively, apply explicit CRLF stripping (remove \r and \n) to any externally derived string before assigning it to a blob-like object's type field - but this must be enforced at every call site and is error-prone. Third-party libraries that wrap undici and construct duck-typed blobs from request input should be audited for this pattern and updated independently.
