An authorization bypass vulnerability was found in envoyproxy/envoy. When a URI path-based authorization policy is specified, envoy incorrectly evaluates the HTTP request which contains a URI #fragment. This flaw allows an attacker to bypass the authorization policy and access downstream services. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
