- The Vert.x Web static handler component cache can be manipulated to deny the access to static files served
by the handler using specifically crafted request URI. The issue comes from an improper implementation of
the C. rule of section 5.2.4 of RFC3986 and is fixed in Vert.x Core component (used by Vert.x Web):
https://github.com/eclipse-vertx/vert.x/pull/5895 Steps to reproduce Given a file served by the static
handler, craft an URI that introduces a string like bar%2F..%2F after the last / char to deny the access
to the URI with an HTTP 404 response. For example https://example.com/foo/index.html can be denied with
https://example.com/foo/bar%2F..%2Findex.html Mitgation Disabling Static Handler cache fixes the issue.
StaticHandler staticHandler = StaticHandler.create().setCachingEnabled(false); (CVE-2026-1002)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
