Submit #964131: netty netty-incubator-codec-quic 0.0.75 Default Token Handler Skips Source-Address Validationinfo

Titelnetty netty-incubator-codec-quic 0.0.75 Default Token Handler Skips Source-Address Validation
BeschreibungA QUIC server built with QuicServerCodecBuilder and no explicit token handler silently gets NoQuicTokenHandler, whose validateToken() simply returns 0. In the server codec, 0 does not mean “invalid” — it means “token valid, original Destination Connection ID (DCID) starts at offset 0”, so the server passes the packet to quiche_accept as if the client’s source address had already been validated by a Retry round‑trip. I verified the accept/reject branch on a live server. Any off‑path attacker who flips a single arbitrary byte in the token field of a spoofed INITIAL will be treated as address‑validated. The repository is no longer maintained, but many users still rely on it.
