Short explanation
The unauthenticated open-editor endpoint in webpack-dev-server validates the Host header with a regular expression meant for browser Origin schemes, leading to information disclosure via Host validation bypass.
A network-adjacent peer can send a malformed Host header to trigger an exception stack trace, disclosing sensitive filesystem paths and installed module locations.
What should be done?
- Follow the vendor advisory
- Upgrade to fixed versions
- Restrict network access to the development server
The sources give limited detail on some technical conditions. Review the chain of evidence below before deciding how to act.
Chain of evidence and sources
webpack-dev-server, 5.1.0 ile 5.2.7 arasındaki sürümlerde ve 6.0.0 sürümünde open-editor uç noktasında bilgi ifşasına karşı savunmasızdır.
Ağ üzerinden erişebilen bir eş, Host doğrulamasını atlayarak HTTP 500 yanıtı ile tam istisna yığın izini tetikleyebilir.
Show the technical text from the sources
webpack-dev-server is a development server that provides live reloading for webpack projects. In versions from 5.1.0 before 5.2.7 and in version 6.0.0, the unauthenticated open-editor endpoint validates the Host header with a regular expression meant for browser Origin schemes, so a Host value beginning with file: or with an extension scheme short-circuits the hostname and allowedHosts checks. A network peer that can reach the dev server can send a request with a malformed Host that passes validation and then causes the endpoint's URL construction to throw, and in the default non-production mode the server returns an HTTP 500 body containing the full exception stack trace, which discloses absolute filesystem paths, installed module locations, and internal source line numbers. The server keeps running, so there is no denial of service. The issue is fixed in webpack-dev-server 5.2.7 and 6.1.0, and users should upgrade to one of those versions or later.
