Traefik before v2.11.55 Authentication Bypass via digestAuth

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 04.09.2026 Published: 04.09.2026 Updated: 04.09.2026

Traefik versions before v2.11.55 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in the digestAuth middleware where unknown usernames receive an empty secret instead of rejection. Attackers can compute a valid digest response using the empty secret and arbitrary credentials to bypass authentication on any digestAuth-protected route without a valid username or password.
