CVE-2026-13697
Description
A flaw was found in undici. This vulnerability allows for cross-user information disclosure when malformed Cache-Control private directives cause private response bodies and headers, such as Set-Cookie data, to be stored in a shared cache and subsequently exposed to other users. Additionally, a specially crafted Cache-Control header can trigger an unhandled error in the cache parser, leading to a process termination and a Denial of Service (DoS). Both issues affect applications using the cache interceptor in shared mode.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
