CVE-2026-94439: HTTP/1 server connection desynchronization after 2xx CONNECT response in net/http
Advisory generated from the CVE record, CISA, Exploit Observer and VEDAS: what it is, whether it is exploited, who is affected, and how to fix and detect it.
Generated by VEDAS. Scores as of 2026-11-08 00:03 UTC. Rebuilt every few hours from cve-scores, CISA KEV and vedas-signatures. How this works and its limits.
What it is
When an HTTP server handler sends a 2xx response to an HTTP/1 CONNECT request and returns without hijacking the connection, the server improperly continues to read and serve requests from the connection. Since a 2xx response to an HTTP/1 CONNECT converts the connection into a tunnel, the server should not treat the connection as continuing to contain HTTP. The impact of this misbehavior is mostly limited to potential request smuggling, where an intermediate proxy considers the data on the connection to be tunneled and the server considers it to be HTTP.
Description quoted from the CVE record (assigned by Go, published 2026-10-08).
Weakness: CWE-444 Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests (‘HTTP Request/Response Smuggling’)
How it can be exploited
Exploitable over the network with low attack complexity needing no privileges and no user interaction. Impact: confidentiality high, integrity none, availability none. CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
CISA assessment (SSVC): CISA has no evidence of exploitation. Automatable: yes. Technical impact: partial.
Public exploit evidence (Exploit Observer)
Exploit Observer has no public exploit code naming this CVE. Check Exploit Observer for anything new.
