Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Envoy is an open source edge and service proxy designed for cloud-native applications. Prior to 1.35.11, 1.36.7, 1.37.3, and 1.38.1, the OAuth2 HTTP filter's encrypt()/decrypt() functions use AES-256-CBC without an authentication tag (no HMAC, no AEAD). The /callback endpoint returns HTTP 302 on successful decryption and HTTP 401 on padding failure, creating a padding oracle. An attacker who obtains the encrypted CodeVerifier cookie can recover the plaintext PKCE code_verifier in ~6,200 requests (~100 seconds), then exchange it with a stolen authorization code to obtain the victim's access token. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.35.11, 1.36.7, 1.37.3, and 1.38.1.

Fixed in 1.35.111.36.71.37.3
Recommended fix High confidence

1.38.1 (or 1.35.11/1.36.7/1.37.3 depending on compatibility needs)

  1. Identify the currently running Envoy version using envoy --version
  2. Determine the appropriate upgrade path based on your current version and deployment requirements
  3. Upgrade Envoy to version 1.35.11, 1.36.7, 1.37.3, or 1.38.1 (preferably 1.38.1 for latest features and fixes)
  4. If using a package manager (apt, yum, docker, etc.), update to the specific fixed version
  5. Verify the upgrade was successful by running envoy --version and confirming the version number
  6. Test the OAuth2 filter functionality to ensure the callback endpoint now returns consistent responses
  7. Deploy the upgraded Envoy to production

Generated from the published advisory — verify against the referenced sources before acting.

We can perform the upgrade in your staging environment and verify nothing breaks — typical engagement from $900. Get the upgrade done
