Title
Traefik before v2.11.55 and v3.0.0 through v3.7.10 mTLS Bypass via TLS Option Conflict
Summary
Traefik before v2.11.55 and v3.0.0 through v3.7.10 contain a TLS option conflict resolution vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass client-certificate authentication by creating conflicting TLS options on multi-host routers. Attackers can reach protected backends by exploiting shared TLS resolution across multiple hostnames in a single router rule, causing the strict mTLS requirement to fall back to default options for all hosts.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
