Summary

A vulnerability in Coder allows an attacker to redirect traffic from the workspace app proxy to an arbitrary host via the X-Forwarded-Host header. The issue occurs when subdomain app routing (wildcard hostname) is enabled, a victim visits the attacker's shared app, and the upstream proxy does not strip this header.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can intercept or spoof responses from the app proxy, leading to theft of credentials, sessions, or other sensitive user data.

Recommendation

Upgrade immediately to versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, or 2.34.2. As a workaround, configure an upstream reverse proxy that strips or overwrites the X-Forwarded-Host header on untrusted requests.

Original NVD description (English source)

Coder allows organizations to provision remote development environments via Terraform. Prior to versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2, the workspace app proxy resolves the target app from `httpapi.RequestHost()` which prefers the `X-Forwarded-Host` header over the real `Host` header. No middleware strips `X-Forwarded-Host` before routing and the header is not browser-forbidden so client-side JavaScript can set it on `fetch()` calls. Practical exploitation requires subdomain app routing (wildcard hostname) enabled, a victim who visits the attacker's shared app and a deployment whose upstream proxy does not strip `X-Forwarded-Host`. The fix in versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2 trusts `X-Forwarded-Host` only from configured trusted proxies and otherwise resolves the routing host from the verified request host. As a workaround, place an upstream reverse proxy that strips or overwrites `X-Forwarded-Host` on untrusted requests.
