Summary

CVE-2026-47069 is a low-severity CRLF Injection (CWE-93) vulnerability in Benoitc Hackney. Its CVSS base score is 2.1 (Low).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Content Injection (T1659); ranked at the 35th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences ('CRLF Injection') vulnerability in benoitc hackney allows HTTP Response Splitting. The hackney_cookie:setcookie/3 function in src/hackney_cookie.erl validates the Name and Value arguments against CRLF and control characters, but concatenates the domain and path options verbatim into…

the output iolist with no equivalent check. An attacker who controls either option — for example by supplying a Host header value forwarded as the cookie domain, or a request path forwarded as the cookie path — can inject a literal CRLF sequence and arbitrary additional Set-Cookie headers into the HTTP response. This issue affects hackney: from 0.9.0 before 4.0.1.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

Input validation directly stops untrusted data containing CRLF sequences from reaching the component that treats CRLF as a delimiter.

Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require input neutralization and validation to block CRLF injection.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing can detect CRLF flaws but does not itself implement the neutralization.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevents CRLF injection.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements include rules for neutralizing special characters such as CRLF in inputs.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles encourage safe handling of untrusted data but do not prescribe specific CRLF controls.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly require neutralization of CRLF sequences, fully addressing this weakness.
