When NGINX Plus or NGINX Open Source are configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module, an attacker may be able to spoof their source IP address allowing for bypass of authorization or bypass of rate limiting. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
Weakness
This attack-focused weakness is caused by incorrectly implemented authentication schemes that are subject to spoofing attacks.
