A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in http4k. This vulnerability affects the function DigestEncoder. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a integrity check vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-354. The product does not validate or incorrectly validates the integrity check values or "checksums" of a message. This may prevent it from detecting if the data has been modified or corrupted in transmission. As an impact it is known to affect integrity. CVE summarizes:
http4k from 4.9.10.0 before 6.60.0.0 contains a missing integrity check vulnerability because DigestEncoder computes the auth-int digest without hashing the request entity body. On-path attackers on non-TLS channels can rewrite the body of authenticated requests while keeping the Authorization header valid, executing state-changing actions as the victim.
