{"cve":"CVE-2026-53715","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-14T21:17:12.833","modified":"2026-09-25T14:10:13.927","status":"Awaiting Analysis","description":"Envoy Gateway is an open source project for managing Envoy Proxy as a standalone or Kubernetes-based application gateway. Prior to 1.7.4 and 1.8.1, HTTPServer.ServeHTTP in internal/wasm/httpserver.go reads the plain mappingPath2Cache map without synchronization while HTTPServer.Get writes the same map during EnvoyExtensionPolicy translation. An attacker with pod-network access to unauthenticated port 18002 and tenant permission to churn policies with distinct Wasm URLs can flood GET requests until a per-request reader overlaps a writer. Go's concurrent map read and write detection invokes runtime.throw, which the net/http connection recovery cannot catch, terminating the controller process and causing a timing-dependent, cross-tenant control-plane denial of service until Kubernetes restarts the pod. This issue is fixed in versions 1.7.4 and 1.8.1.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.3},"cwes":["CWE-362"],"references":["https://github.com/envoyproxy/gateway/commit/5a78db82b7cf4fc5bebbeda2c50952892038a464","https://github.com/envoyproxy/gateway/commit/96e2b750868a459ace4b8b68e6a6e4fb0152b9b7","https://github.com/envoyproxy/gateway/commit/b4737180c7e597490c6363075c565fa8cf24eead","https://github.com/envoyproxy/gateway/pull/9171","https://github.com/envoyproxy/gateway/pull/9172"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:53:43.293028046+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-53715","score":0.00467,"percentile":0.40466,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-8fv2-88gg-hm7q","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-8fv2-88gg-hm7q","summary":"Envoy Gateway: Wasm cache ServeHTTP reads mappingPath2Cache without lock","modified":"2026-09-21T09:40:27.959154597Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","ranges":[">=1.8.0-rc.0 <1.8.1"],"fixed":["1.8.1"]},{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","ranges":["<1.7.4"],"fixed":["1.7.4"]}]},{"id":"GO-2026-6005","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2026-6005","summary":"Envoy Gateway: Wasm cache ServeHTTP reads mappingPath2Cache without lock in github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","modified":"2026-09-21T09:40:27.959154597Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/envoyproxy/gateway","ranges":["<1.7.4",">=1.8.0-rc.0 <1.8.1"],"fixed":["1.7.4","1.8.1"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
