How to Fix CVE-2025-11143

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Jetty http dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.eclipse.jetty

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2025-11143, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.eclipse.jetty

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Jetty http in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 12.0.31), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.eclipse.jetty command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-20: Improper Input Validation, where the product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. In Jetty http, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

The Jetty URI parser has some key differences compared to other common parsers when evaluating invalid or unusual URIs. Specifically: #### Invalid Scheme | URI | Jetty | uri-js (nodejs) | node-url(nodejs) | |---|---|---| --- | | `https>://vulndetector.com/path` | scheme=`http>`| scheme=`https` | invalid URI | #### Improper IPv4 mapped IPv6 | URI | Jetty | System.Uri(CSharp) | curl(C) | |---|---|---| --- | | `http://[0:0:0:0:0:ffff:127.0.0.1]` | invalid | host=`[::ffff:127.0.0.1]` | host=`[::ffff:127.0.0.1]` | | `http://[::ffff:255.255.0.0]` | invalid | host=`[::ffff:255.255.0.0]` | host=`[::ffff:255.255.0.0]` | #### Incorrect IPv6 delimeter priority | URI | Jetty | urllib3(python) | furl(python) | Spring | chromium | |---|---|---| --- |---|---| | `http://[normal.com@]vulndetector.com/` | host=`[normal.com@]` | invalid | invalid | | | | `http://normal.com[user@vulndetector].com/` | host=`[noirmal.com@vulndetector | | | host=`normal.com` | invalid | | `http://normal.com[@]vulndetector.com/` | host=`normal.com[@] | | | host=`normal.com` | invalid | #### Incorrect delimeter priority | URI | Jetty | urllib3(python) | jersey | |---|---|---| --- | | `http://normal.com/#@vulndetector.com` | host=`vulndetector.com` | host=`normal.com` | host=`normal.com` | | `http://normal.com/?@vulndetector.com` | host=`vulndetector.com` | host=`normal.com` | host=`normal.com` | ### Impact Differential parsing of URIs in systems using multiple components may result in security by-pass. For example a component that enforces a black list may interpret the URIs differently from one that generates a response. At the very least, differential parsing may divulge implementation details. ### Patches Patched in Supported Open Source versions. * 12.1.5 - Supported and available on Maven Central * 12.0.31 - Supported and available on Maven Central * 11.0.x - EOL Release, patches available on [tuxcare](https://tuxcare.com/) and [herodevs](https://www.herodevs.com/) * 10.0.x - EOL Release, patches available on [tuxcare](https://tuxcare.com/) and [herodevs](https://www.herodevs.com/) * 9.4.x - EOL Release, patches available on [tuxcare](https://tuxcare.com/) and [herodevs](https://www.herodevs.com/) ### Workarounds None ### Resources + [Java Eclipse Jetty Report_ Incorrect Parsing Priority of the IPv6 Hostname Delimeter.pdf](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22222625/Java.Eclipse.Jetty.Report_.Incorrect.Parsing.Priority.of.the.IPv6.Hostname.Delimeter.pdf) + [Java Eclipse Jetty Report_ The Parsing Priority of the Delimiter.pdf](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22222626/Java.Eclipse.Jetty.Report_.The.Parsing.Priority.of.the.Delimiter.pdf) + [Java Eclipse Jetty Report_ Parsing Difference Due to Deformed Scheme.pdf](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22222627/Java.Eclipse.Jetty.Report_.Parsing.Difference.Due.to.Deformed.Scheme.pdf) + [Java Eclipse Jetty Report_ Improper IPv4-mapped IPv6 Parsing.pdf](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22222630/Java.Eclipse.Jetty.Report_.Improper.IPv4-mapped.IPv6.Parsing.pdf)
