fastify versions >= 4.0.0 and before 5.12.2 can route a malformed URL sent under one plugin prefix to the custom not-found handler of a different sibling plugin, and invoke it without the preHandler hook declared for that handler. The internal not-found router for encapsulated handlers dispatches malformed paths through a single shared handler pointer before URL decoding, ignoring the prefix and skipping the selected handler's normal lifecycle. An unauthenticated attacker can therefore reach an authentication-protected private fallback through an unrelated public prefix and read its full response, bypassing the authentication hook and breaking prefix encapsulation. Users should upgrade to fastify 5.12.2 or later.

 https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/ghsa-p68q-wchp-6fh7 GHSA-p68q-wchp-6fh7 — fastify vulnerable to authentication bypass via malformed URLs reaching encapsulated not-found handlers 2026-10-02T15:00:56.820892+00:00

Affected: npm: fastify

### Impact

Fastify routes a malformed URL under one plugin prefix to the custom not-found handler of a different sibling plugin, invoking the handler registered last and skipping the `preHandler` declared in its `setNotFoundHandler()`. When the request method has no route in the main router, a malformed request target reaches Fastify's internal not-found router before URL decoding and is dispatched through a single shared handler pointer, regardless of prefix and without the normal request lifecycle. An unauthenticated request to a public prefix can therefore reach an authentication-protected not-found handler registered under a different prefix and receive its full response, breaking prefix encapsulation and bypassing the authentication hook. Applications whose private or tenant fallbacks return protected data from a not-found handler are affected.

### Patches

Patched in fastify 5.12.2. Malformed URLs are now routed through the configured `onBadUrl` and `onMaxParamLength` handlers so they fail closed before any application not-found handler runs, and the shared not-found handler pointer has been removed.

### Workarounds

Reject malformed request targets before they reach the application, for example at an upstream proxy or gateway, and do not rely on a not-found handler to serve protected data. A global `onRequest` authentication hook does not mitigate this, because the malformed-URL path skips it.
