CVE-2026-46592Source published Source updated
Improper Input Validation, Unintended Proxy or Intermediary ('Confused Deputy') vulnerability in Apache Camel CXF SOAP component. The camel-cxf producer selects which SOAP operation to invoke on the backend service from the operationName (and operationNamespace) Exchange header, whose constant values (CxfConstants.OPERATION_NAME / OPERATION_NAMESPACE) were the plain strings operationName / operationNamespace. Because these names do not start with the Camel / camel prefix, HttpHeaderFilterStrategy - which blocks only the Camel header namespace on the HTTP boundary - let them pass from an inbound HTTP request straight into the Exchange. In a route that bridges an HTTP consumer (for example platform-http) into a cxf: producer, any HTTP client could therefore set the operationName header and…

- Mitigation guidance
- To mitigate this issue, ensure that the `operationName` and `operationNamespace` headers are not sourced from untrusted input when bridging an HTTP consumer to a `cxf:` producer in Apache Camel routes. Configure the route to explicitly strip these headers from any untrusted ingress before they reach the `cxf:` producer. Subsequently, set the intended SOAP operation from a trusted, internal source within the route. This prevents a remote attacker from manipulating backend service operations. Changes to route configurations may require a service restart to take effect.
