cpp-httplib: HTTP header value percent-decoding in server-side `parse_header` enables CRLF injection
02 Description
cpp-httplib: HTTP header value percent-decoding in server-side `parse_header` enables CRLF injection
03 Exploitation and scoring
- Exploitation
- Public exploit code exists. CISA's assessment records a public proof of concept. That is not a report of exploitation in the wild.
- SSVC decision
- ExploitationpocPublic proof-of-concept exploit code exists. Not a report of exploitation in the wild.
- AutomatableyesAn attacker can reliably automate reconnaissance through exploitation, so this scales.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
- EPSS probability
- 0.29% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 21.9% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 9.9 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector
- CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:L
- NVD analysis status
- Modified. NVD last modified this record on 2026-07-22.
- Red Hat severity
- No Red Hat rating. Red Hat rates the CVEs that affect its products.
Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.
