CVE-2026-91920: Undertow ChunkReader Component Chunk-Size Overflow Vulnerability

Sources read

Evidence confidence

Short explanation

A vulnerability exists in the ChunkReader component of the Undertow web server when handling chunked transfer encoding in HTTP requests. Because the security check for the chunk size occurs before the value is shifted, a crafted 15-digit chunk size can bypass the limit and overflow internal state flags.

Why does it matter?

This flaw allows the server to terminate a request body prematurely and interpret remaining data as a separate, smuggled request, potentially impacting system integrity and availability.

What should be done?

  • Follow vendor advisories for affected product builds
  • Monitor official channels for patch availability and status updates
