CVE-2026-54762

Описание

Traefik is an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. From 3.7.0-ea.1 until 3.7.5, there is a medium severity vulnerability in Traefik's Kubernetes Ingress NGINX provider that causes affected routes to fail open. When an Ingress explicitly enables BasicAuth or DigestAuth through the supported nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-type and auth-secret annotations, but the referenced auth Secret cannot be resolved or parsed, Traefik logs the resolution error, skips installing the authentication middleware, and still emits a router to the backend service. A route that operators intended to protect is therefore published to the data plane without its authentication control, allowing unauthenticated access to the backend. The trigger is an invalid or unresolved auth dependency — a missing, malformed, unreadable, or policy-denied Secret — rather than an intentionally unprotected route. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.5.

A flaw was found in Traefik, an HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer. When an Ingress is configured to use BasicAuth or DigestAuth, but the associated authentication secret cannot be resolved or is malformed, Traefik fails to apply the authentication middleware. This allows unauthenticated access to backend services that were intended to be protected, potentially exposing sensitive information or functionality.
