An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-48020 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.19, 3.7.3\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.19\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.6.19\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v3 (Go): affected from 3.7.0-ea.1; fixed in 3.7.3\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v3 (Go): affected from 3.7.0-ea.1; fixed in 3.7.3\n- github.com/traefik/traefik (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.11.48\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.11.48\n- github.com/traefik/traefik/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.11.48\n\nTask:\n1.

If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5.

Prior to 2.11.48, 3.6.19, and 3.7.3, there is a high severity vulnerability in Traefik's StripPrefix middleware that allows an unauthenticated attacker to bypass route-level authentication and authorization. When a public router matches on a PathPrefix rule and applies the StripPrefix middleware, a request path containing .. or its percent-encoded form %2e%2e can match the public route at routing time and then, after the prefix is stripped and the path is normalized, resolve to a path served by a separate, authenticated router. As a result, an attacker can reach protected backend paths — such as admin or internal configuration endpoints — without satisfying the authentication middleware attached to the protected router. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.11.48, 3.6.19, and 3.7.3.","ecosystems":["Go","openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-06-27","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-06-27T08:17:05Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Hunt-Benito/traefik-stripprefix-auth-bypass-cve-2026-48020-path-normalization","stars":0,"title":null}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Traefik
