Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Traefik v3 versions before 3.6.18 and from 3.7.0 before 3.7.3, Traefik v2 before 2.11.51, and Traefik v1 at or below 1.7.34 are affected, with fixes in 3.6.18, 3.7.3, and 2.11.51; no fix is listed for v1. When HTTP/3 is enabled, TLS option lookup is case-sensitive and exact, so a router's mTLS requirement can be skipped for wildcard or mixed-case hostnames. An unauthenticated client that can reach the UDP entrypoint may then reach a backend that requires client certificates. Upgrade to a fixed version, or disable HTTP/3 on affected entrypoints as a workaround.
