CVE-2026-13763

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP/2 requests in AWS Application Load Balancer with AWS WAF enabled might allow remote actors to bypass AWS WAF managed rule body inspection via crafted HTTP/2 requests that fragment the request body across frames so that only a partial body is inspected. This issue only impacts HTTP/2 ALB target groups. To remediate this issue, customers should enable the "Inspect after sufficient data" target group configuration associated to an ALB load balancer. Refer to: ( https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/application/edit-target-group-attributes.html#waf-http2-inspection )

Este problema solo afecta a los grupos objetivo de ALB HTTP/2.\n\nPara remediar este problema, los clientes deberían habilitar la configuración del grupo objetivo ’Inspeccionar después de datos suficientes’ asociada a un balanceador de carga de ALB.
