Technical description

proxy-addr is a Node.js module that determines a request's client address behind trusted reverse proxies, and it backs Express req.ip and req.ips. In versions 1.1.0 through 2.0.7, a trust subnet written in IPv4-mapped IPv6 notation with an IPv4-sized prefix, such as ::ffff:10.0.0.0/8 instead of the correct ::ffff:10.0.0.0/104, is accepted without error but trusts every IPv4 address on the internet rather than the block it names. Because the socket peer then becomes trusted at hop 0, any unauthenticated client can supply an arbitrary X-Forwarded-For header and control the address the application reads, which defeats IP-based access control, rate limiting, geolocation, and audit logging. This is a fail-open regression introduced in version 1.1.0. The issue is fixed in proxy-addr 2.0.8, and users should upgrade to 2.0.8 or later. As a workaround, ensure any IPv4-mapped IPv6 trust subnet uses a prefix length of at least 97, or express the range in plain IPv4 notation.

——0evolution-api through 2.3.7 contains an incorrect array comparison in the metricsIPWhitelist middleware that always evaluates to false, allowing unauthenticated access to the /metrics endpoint. Attackers can bypass IP whitelist restrictions to access sensitive metrics disclosing server version, database client name, configured server URL, and WhatsApp instance details.2h CVE-2026-91851—

——0Affected versions of MISP incorrectly filter dashboard templates that are restricted to a specific permission flag. DashboardsController::listTemplates() allowed a template when either: - its restrict_to_permission_flag matched one of the current user’s permission flags, or - restrict_to_permission_flag equaled integer 0 However, restrict_to_permission_flag is a varchar. MySQL therefore performed numeric coercion when comparing the column against integer 0. Strings such as perm_site_admin convert numerically to zero, making expressions such as perm_site_admin = 0 evaluate true and causing the “unrestricted” branch to match permission-restricted templates as well. Version affected: ≤2.5.455h CVE-2026-734495.9 MED

——0On affected platforms running Arista EOS with both 802.1X port authentication and the RADIUS proxy feature configured with dynamic authorization, a low-privileged attacker on an adjacent network segment who induces a RADIUS packet through a configured RADIUS proxy client can prevent RADIUS dynamic authorization messages, including Change-of-Authorization (CoA) and Disconnect-Requests as defined in RFC 5176, from being applied to locally authenticated 802.1X sessions. This allows an endpoint session that a RADIUS server or network access control system has ordered disconnected to remain authorized on the network. Both 802.1X port authentication with dynamic authorization and RADIUS proxy with dynamic authorization must be explicitly configured for a deployment to be exposed to this issue. This issue was discovered internally by Arista, and the company is not aware of any malicious exploitation of this vulnerability in customer networks.16h CVE-2026-180655.3 MED
