## Overview

Traefik 2.11.0 before 2.11.58 and 3.0.0 before 3.7.14 contains an authentication bypass because a first request preauthenticated with an Authorization: Negotiate token authenticates a socket in the globally shared backend connection pool, which is never isolated. Unauthenticated attackers on separate frontend connections can be assigned that NTLM/Kerberos-bound socket and perform reads or writes with the victim's identity.

## Affected

- `traefik >= 2.11.0 < 2.11.58`
- `traefik >= 3.0.0 < 3.7.14`

## Remediation

Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.
