Overview

CVE-2024-6763 is a low-severity vulnerability. It was published on October 14, 2024 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.7 (LOW).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.7, rated LOW. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

Eclipse Jetty is a lightweight, highly scalable, Java-based web server and Servlet engine . It includes a utility class, HttpURI, for URI/URL parsing.

The HttpURI class does insufficient validation on the authority segment of a URI. However the behaviour of HttpURI

differs from the common browsers in how it handles a URI that would be

considered invalid if fully validated against the RRC. Specifically HttpURI

and the browser may differ on the value of the host extracted from an

invalid URI and thus a combination of Jetty and a vulnerable browser may

be vulnerable to a open redirect attack or to a SSRF attack if the URI

is used after passing validation checks.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
