@fastify/express is a Fastify plugin that runs Express middleware inside Fastify. In versions 4.0.5 through 4.0.8, when Fastify runs with the non-default ignoreDuplicateSlashes option enabled, the plugin matches path-scoped Express middleware against a URL whose duplicate-slash normalization has also collapsed the separator after an absolute-form request target's scheme, so Fastify's router resolves the request to the scoped path and runs the handler while the Express layer no longer sees that path. As a result, a request using an absolute-form target can reach a handler on a scoped route such as an admin path while the middleware for authentication, authorization, or rate limiting is skipped. An unauthenticated attacker needs only the non-default ignoreDuplicateSlashes option to be enabled. The issue is fixed in @fastify/express 4.0.9, and users should upgrade to 4.0.9 or later. As a workaround, enforce authentication in a Fastify hook such as preHandler that runs after the router resolves the request, or leave ignoreDuplicateSlashes at its default.
