CVE-2026-66746
Rouille 0.4.0 - 3.6.2 HTTP Response Splitting via Header Injection
Description

Rouille 0.4.0 through 3.6.2 contains an HTTP response splitting vulnerability that allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary response headers by embedding carriage return (0x0D) or line feed (0x0A) bytes into attacker-controlled input. Attackers can exploit percent-decoded query parameters reflected into response headers or inject bare LF characters into Cookie header values that are interpolated directly into Set-Cookie response headers, enabling cache poisoning, session fixation, and security header override attacks such as bypassing CSP or CORS policies.

Solution
Update Rouille to a version that addresses HTTP response splitting vulnerabilities.
  • Update Rouille to version 3.6.3 or later.
  • Sanitize all user-controlled input before reflection.
  • Validate and encode HTTP header values.
  • Avoid direct interpolation of input into headers.
