Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Traefik v3 (>=3.0.0, <3.7.13) and Traefik v2 (<2.11.57) are affected. A remote, unauthenticated client can send an HTTP/1.x request with a rootless request-target, which Traefik routes and enforces guards against as path "/" while forwarding the original target unchanged to the backend. This can bypass host-based routing, path-scoped middleware and authorization, and access logging. Upgrade Traefik v3 to 3.7.13 or Traefik v2 to 2.11.57; the source lists no workaround.
