CVE-2026-119130 Details
Description
Wasmtime before 36.0.18, 37.0.0 before 48.0.6, and 49.0.0 before 49.0.3 does not verify that set-path-with-query values in wasmtime-wasi-http are paths, so absolute-form URLs are written verbatim as the HTTP/1.1 request target while the connection uses the allowed authority. A malicious guest can supply an absolute URL that a forward proxy or gateway at that authority honors, reaching hosts disallowed by embedder filtering policies.
A vulnerability in Wasmtime's HTTP handling within the 'wasmtime-wasi-http' crate allows for HTTP request target smuggling. Affected versions include Wasmtime prior to 36.0.18, versions 37.0.0 through 48.0.5, and versions 49.0.0 prior to 49.0.3. The vulnerability arises because the 'set-path-with-query' function does not properly validate that the input is a path. As a result, absolute URLs can be sent as HTTP request targets while using the authority specified by the guest. This could lead to requests being forwarded to disallowed hosts via a forward proxy or gateway that honors such URLs, bypassing embedder filtering policies.
Users can upgrade to Wasmtime versions 36.0.18, 48.0.6, or 49.0.3 to address this vulnerability.
