The doubled slash breaks the contiguous substring the regex needs, so the request is treated as unprotected and no authentication challenge is issued, while mod_get opens the same path and the operating system collapses the doubled slash and returns the protected file. The same path mismatch also evades the per-path accounting in mod_security.\n\nThis issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 before OTP 27.3.4.17, OTP 28.5.0.6, and OTP 29.0.6, corresponding to inets from 5.10 before 9.3.2.7, 9.6.2.3, and 9.7.2. Whether OTP before OTP 17.0, corresponding to inets before 5.10, is affected is unknown.","epss":{"date":"2026-11-10","percentile":0.62317,"score":0.00973},"exploits":[],"kev":null,"metrics":[{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"CNA: EEF","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"}],"modifiedAt":1794405203150,"publishedAt":1788274187805,"references":[{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["vendor-advisory","related"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/security/advisories/GHSA-r4vv-vc2c-2fw6"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["related"],"url":"https://cna.erlef.org/cves/CVE-2026-66835.html"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["related"],"url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/EEF-CVE-2026-66835"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["x_version-scheme"],"url":"https://www.erlang.org/doc/system/versions.html#order-of-versions"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/bac19eb3dbd96cc49b6d8cabc1c04248bf8c79f6"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/d8878dec0ececc2eab18e47bb18b472f224ca633"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/9641944a2efbf55bea760f8ff7ba777fe3a0961c"}],"remediation":[{"kind":"fix","source":"CNA: EEF","text":"The reporting source identifies this reference as a patch.
