CVE-2026-58183Network attack vector

Service crash via undisclosed prefetch input handling

Published Jul 29, 2026 · Updated Jul 29, 2026

Improper input validation in the Apache Traffic Server prefetch plugin allows remote attackers to crash the proxy through crafted requests. Apache has not published the faulty function or the specific operation performed incorrectly on attacker-influenced input. Exploitation requires that input reach an enabled prefetch plugin, and the reported consequence is limited to a proxy service crash.
