CVE-2026-55202

Tinyproxy - Stathost Detection Bypass via Host Header Manipulation

No exploitation reported by the sources we read.

  • Published2026-06-17
  • WeaknessCWE-290

Am I affected?

With a domain, we read the version its public headers and pages expose. A distribution build can carry the fix under an older number.

Description

Tinyproxy through 1.11.3, fixed in commit 09312a1, fails to properly validate the Host header during stathost detection, allowing unauthenticated attackers to access the stats page by injecting a matching Host header or bypass detection via port manipulation. Remote attackers can trigger unauthorized access to internal proxy statistics or misroute requests as transparent proxy connections to circumvent access controls.
