## Affected packages

- `github.com/traefik/traefik/v2` (Go): affected `<2.11.42`; fixed in `2.11.42`
- `github.com/traefik/traefik/v3` (Go): affected `>=3.0.0-beta3, <3.6.12 || >=3.7.0-ea.1, <3.7.0-ea.3`; fixed in `3.6.12`, `3.7.0-ea.3`

## Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

> Traefik v2 before 2.11.42 and Traefik v3 from 3.0.0-beta3 before 3.6.12, plus 3.7.0-ea.1 before 3.7.0-ea.3, are affected through a vulnerable gRPC-Go dependency. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can send gRPC requests with a malformed HTTP/2 :path lacking the leading slash, which can bypass path-based deny rules when a fallback allow rule exists. Upgrade to Traefik 2.11.42, 3.6.12, or 3.7.0-ea.3, depending on the release line in use.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-46wh-3698-f2cx>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
