CVE-2025-22871: Request smuggling due to acceptance of invalid chunked data in net/http
The net/http package improperly accepts a bare LF as a line terminator in chunked data chunk-size lines. This can permit request smuggling if a net/http server is used in conjunction with a server that incorrectly accepts a bare LF as part of a chunk-ext.
Security readout for executives and security teams
A flaw in Go's HTTP server handling can let front-end and back-end servers disagree about where one request ends. In affected deployments, that disagreement may allow request smuggling, which can bypass controls or mix attacker-controlled traffic with another user's request path. Exposure is most likely for internet-facing Go services using net/http behind a proxy, load balancer, gateway, or other HTTP server that parses chunked requests differently. Evidence provided identifies Go standard library net/http/internal versions from 0 through 1.24.0-0 as affected. Treat this as urgent for externally exposed Go services behind proxies or gateways. The issue can affect trust boundaries at the HTTP layer and has a critical CVSS score, but the supplied evidence does not confirm active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Review official Go advisory GO-2025-3563 and upgrade to the fixed Go release it identifies.; Rebuild and redeploy Go services after updating the toolchain or standard library.; Check vendor advisories for appliances or products bundling affected Go components..

Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling')
Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling') represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
