CVE-2026-66754

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Rouille 0.1.6 through 3.6.2 contains a reachable assertion vulnerability in the Request::remove_prefix function that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to crash the server by sending a crafted percent-encoded URL. Attackers can send a request whose decoded path matches a configured prefix while the raw percent-encoded path does not, causing the assert! to fail and triggering either a 500 error or full process termination depending on the panic configuration.

Los atacantes pueden enviar una solicitud cuya ruta decodificada coincide con un prefijo configurado mientras que la ruta codificada en porcentaje (percent-encoded) sin procesar no lo hace, lo que provoca que el ’assert!’ falle y desencadena un error 500 o la terminación completa del proceso dependiendo de la configuración de pánico."
