The EDS metadata parsing was inadvertently coupling the A76 (ring hash
endpoint hash key) and A86 (HTTP CONNECT) features. When either
GRPC_XDS_ENDPOINT_HASH_KEY_BACKWARD_COMPAT was false (A76 enabled) or
GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_XDS_HTTP_CONNECT was true (A86 enabled), the code would
parse all metadata including TypedFilterMetadata with converters.

This caused issues because:

  • A76 only needs FilterMetadata["envoy.lb"] for hash_key extraction
  • A86 needs TypedFilterMetadata with converters (e.g., for
    envoy.config.core.v3.Address) which can fail validation

When A76 was enabled but A86 was disabled, invalid proxy addresses in
TypedFilterMetadata would still cause NACKs, even though the user didn't care
about HTTP CONNECT.

This change makes TypedFilterMetadata processing conditional on
GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_XDS_HTTP_CONNECT, so that A76 can be enabled independently
without triggering A86-specific validation failures.

RELEASE NOTES:

  • Fix a bug where enabling A76 ring hash endpoint hash key feature
    would cause EDS resources to be NACKed if they contained invalid proxy address
    metadata, even when HTTP CONNECT (A86) was not enabled.

Code Review

This pull request effectively decouples the A76 (ring hash endpoint hash key) and A86 (HTTP CONNECT) features in EDS metadata parsing. The change correctly makes TypedFilterMetadata processing conditional on GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_XDS_HTTP_CONNECT, preventing unwanted validation failures when only A76 is enabled. The code is clean and the added tests cover some important scenarios. I've suggested one additional test case to explicitly verify the fix for the bug that motivated this change.

Curious. Why does your control plane send invalid proxy addresses in the first place?

@atollena I discussed this with @markdroth and this is what he had to say:


I agree that that is probably sub-optimal behavior. In principle, we should probably do something like use the env var to control whether each of the metadata types is registered with the parser, so that even if we parse the metadata map itself, we'll ignore any entry whose type is not enabled by the env var.

That having been said, I'm not sure this is worth fixing, since we're eventually going to enable the A86 changes and drop the env var guard, and at that point they'll need to fix their control plane to provide valid data anyway. So it may be better for them to just do that now and not make a change that will ultimately just be temporary.


What do you think?

TypedFilterMetadata would still cause NACKs, even though the user didn't care
about HTTP CONNECT.

Curious. Why does your control plane send invalid proxy addresses in the first place?

I only discovered this in the unit tests of grpc-go, which tests the case of invalid proxy addresses that shouldn't fail parsing if A86 is disabled, but it turns out that without this PR, the A76 env var also enables this new behavior.

My goal was just to clean up the env var guards for A76 by first enabling them by default, but that would currently enable the address parsing of A86 for all grpc-go users, which doesn't seem right.

What do you think?

I think the change in this PR is a reasonable fix: only parse typed fields if A86 is enabled, since this is the first gRFC to add typed fields. Only enable string types parsing if A76 is enabled (I don't think it can fail).

@atollena

What do you think about registering the parser for A86 only when the env var is enabled? This is currently done unconditionally here:
https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/master/internal/xds/xdsclient/xdsresource/metadata.go#L29

I think this should make the unit test failure that you are running into go away.

Also, we have already started working on the implementation of A83, and it would be nice to follow the same approach there of registering the parser only when the corresponding env var is enabled. Otherwise, we will be stuck inside of validateAndConstructMetadata checking for multiple env vars.

Understood, I took your suggestion. I also added a test helper to unregister converters.

### gRPC-Go: xDS RBAC and HTTP/2 Vulnerabilities
[GHSA-hrxh-6v49-42gf](GHSA-hrxh-6v49-42gf)

<details>
<summary>More information</summary>

#### Details
Multiple security vulnerabilities have been identified and addressed in grpc-go affecting the xDS RBAC authorization engine (internal/xds/rbac) and the HTTP/2 transport server implementation (internal/transport). These vulnerabilities could result in:

- Authorization Bypass (Fail-Open) when translating xDS RBAC policies containing `Metadata` or `RequestedServerName` fields.
- Denial of Service (High CPU Consumption) due to an HTTP/2 Rapid Reset mitigation bypass during client-initiated stream resets.
- Denial of Service (Server Panic) when parsing crafted xDS RBAC policies containing `NOT` rules around unsupported fields.

##### Impact
_What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_

##### xDS RBAC Authorization Bypass via `Metadata` & `RequestedServerName` matchers

- Affected Component: xDS RBAC
- Impact: When building policy matchers for gRPC RBAC from xDS configurations, unsupported `permission` and `principal` rules (specifically `Metadata` and `RequestedServerName`) were silently ignored and treated as no-ops.
  - If an authorization policy relied purely on these matchers for access control, treating those rules as no-ops effectively removed the restrictions.
- If these unsupported rules were nested inside logical `NOT` rules (`Permission_NotRule` / `Principal_NotId`) or multi-condition `OR/AND` rules, silently dropping them changed the boolean logic flow of the authorization engine.

As a result, policy evaluation decisions could fail open, allowing unauthorized clients to access protected gRPC services or resources.

##### HTTP/2 Rapid Reset Mitigation Bypass / Denial of Service via Stream Aborts

- Affected Component: HTTP/2 transport
- Impact: Earlier mitigations in grpc-go for HTTP/2 Rapid Reset only applied threshold checks to items that directly resulted in control frames being written back to the wire, such as `SETTINGS` ACKs or server-initiated `RST_STREAM`s.

When a client initiated a rapid flood of stream creation (`HEADERS`) immediately followed by stream termination `RST_STREAM`, items queued up in the control buffer without counting against the transport response frame threshold. An attacker can repeatedly trigger this flood sequence to bypass reader blocking, resulting in high CPU usage, and Denial of Service (DoS).

##### Denial of Service (Panic) in xDS RBAC Engine via Unsupported Fields inside NOT Rules

- Affected Component: xDS RBAC
- Impact: The xDS RBAC policy translators recursively generate matchers for nested rules. When a `NOT` rule wrapped an unsupported or unhandled field (such as `SourcedMetadata`), the recursive step returned an empty matcher. This could result in a runtime panic when the RBAC engine attempts to authorize an incoming request.

An attacker or misconfigured/malicious xDS management server delivering an LDS/RDS update containing a `NOT` rule around an unhandled field causes the gRPC server process to crash immediately (CWE-248 / Denial of Service).

##### Patches
_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_

All three issues have been fixed in `master` and will be released in 1.82.1 shortly.

##### Workarounds
_Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_

If upgrading grpc-go immediately is not possible, apply the following workarounds based on your deployment architecture:

* For xDS RBAC Vulnerabilities & Panics: Ensure that upstream xDS management servers do not push RBAC policies containing `Metadata`, `RequestedServerName`, or `NOT` rules wrapping unsupported fields (such as `SourcedMetadata`) to grpc-go servers.
* For HTTP/2 Rapid Reset DOS: Configure upstream reverse proxies or load balancers (such as Envoy) with strict HTTP/2 `max_concurrent_streams` limits and active rate limiting on `RST_STREAM` frequency per connection.

##### Severity

  | Vulnerability | Qualitative Severity | Approximate CVSS v3.1 Score | Primary Impact |
  | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
  | **xDS RBAC Authorization Bypass** | **High** | `8.2` | Unauthorized Access / Fail-Open |
  | **HTTP/2 Rapid Reset DOS Bypass** | **High** | `7.5` | High CPU Consumption / Denial of Service |
  | **xDS RBAC Engine Server Panic** | **Medium** | `5.9` | Process Crash / Denial of Service |

#### Severity
- CVSS Score: 8.8 / 10 (High)
- Vector String: `CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N`

### Release Notes

<details>
<summary>grpc/grpc-go (google.golang.org/grpc)</summary>

### [`v1.82.1`](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases/tag/v1.82.1): Release 1.82.1

[Compare Source](grpc/grpc-go@v1.82.0...v1.82.1)

### Security

- server: Stop reading from the connection when flooded by HTTP/2 frames.  The default value for this limit is 100 frames, excluding DATA and HEADERS, and may be changed by setting environment variable `GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_CONTROL_BUFFER_THROTTLE_LIMIT`.
- xds/rbac: Support `Metadata` and `RequestedServerName` permissions matcher fields.  If present in a DENY rule, previously these would be ignored and fail-open.
- xds/rbac: Fix panic when parsing unsupported fields in `NotRule`/`NotId` permissions.
- xds/rbac: Support the deprecated `source_ip` principal identifier by treating it as equivalent to `direct_remote_ip`.

### [`v1.82.0`](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases/tag/v1.82.0): Release 1.82.0

[Compare Source](grpc/grpc-go@v1.81.1...v1.82.0)

### Behavior Changes

- server: Remove support for `GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_DISABLE_STRICT_PATH_CHECKING` environment varibale. Strict incoming RPC path validation (which has been the default since `v1.79.3`) can no longer be disabled. ([#&#8203;9112](grpc/grpc-go#9112))
- transport: Add environment variable to change the default max header list size from `16MB` to `8KB`. This may be enabled by setting `GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_8KB_DEFAULT_HEADER_LIST_SIZE=true`. This will be enabled by default in a subsequent release. ([#&#8203;9019](grpc/grpc-go#9019))
- balancer: Load Balancing policy registry is now case-sensitive.  Set `GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_CASE_SENSITIVE_BALANCER_REGISTRIES=false` (and file an issue) to revert to case-insensitive behavior. ([#&#8203;9017](grpc/grpc-go#9017))

### New Features

- experimental/stats: Expose a new API, `NewContextWithLabelCallback`, to register a callback that is invoked when telemetry labels are added. ([#&#8203;8877](grpc/grpc-go#8877))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;seth-epps](https://github.com/seth-epps)
- client: Return a portion of the response body in the error message, when the client receives an unexpected non-gRPC HTTP response, to make debugging easier. ([#&#8203;8929](grpc/grpc-go#8929))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;chengxilo](https://github.com/chengxilo)
- server: Add environment variable `GRPC_GO_SERVER_GOROUTINE_LABELS` that controls setting `runtime/pprof.Labels` on goroutines spawned by the server. Set `GRPC_GO_SERVER_GOROUTINE_LABELS=grpc.method=true` to add the `grpc.method` label on goroutines spawned to handle incoming requests. ([#&#8203;9082](grpc/grpc-go#9082))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;dfinkel](https://github.com/dfinkel)

### Bug Fixes

- xds/server: Fix a memory leak of HTTP filter instances occurring when route configurations are updated in-place during a Route Discovery Service (RDS) update. ([#&#8203;9138](grpc/grpc-go#9138))
- grpc: In the deprecated `gzip` Compressor (used via the deprecated `WithCompressor` dial option), enforce the `MaxRecvMsgSize` limit on the decompressed message buffer, preventing excessive memory allocation from highly compressed payloads. ([#&#8203;9114](grpc/grpc-go#9114))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;evilgensec](https://github.com/evilgensec)

### Security

- xds/rbac: Fix a potential authorization bypass caused by incorrectly falling through URI/DNS SANs to Subject Distinguished Name (DN) when matching the authenticated principal name. With this fix, only the first non-empty identity source will be used, as per [gRFC A41](https://github.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A41-xds-rbac.md). ([#&#8203;9111](grpc/grpc-go#9111))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;al4an444](https://github.com/al4an444)

### Bug Fixes

- otel: Segregate client and server RPC information used for metrics and traces, to avoid one overwriting the other. ([#&#8203;9081](grpc/grpc-go#9081))

### [`v1.81.0`](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases/tag/v1.81.0): Release 1.81.0

[Compare Source](grpc/grpc-go@v1.80.0...v1.81.0)

### Behavior Changes

Disabled by default. To enable, set `GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_XDS_SNI=true` environment variable. ([#&#8203;9016](grpc/grpc-go#9016))
- xds: Add support to control which fields get propagated from ORCA backend metric reports to LRS load reports ([gRFC A85](https://github.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A85-lrs-custom-metrics-changes.md)). Disabled by default. To enable, set `GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_XDS_ORCA_LRS_PROPAGATION=true`. ([#&#8203;9005](grpc/grpc-go#9005))
- xds: Add metrics to track xDS client connectivity and cached resource state ([gRFC A78](https://github.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A78-grpc-metrics-wrr-pf-xds.md)). ([#&#8203;8807](grpc/grpc-go#8807))
- stats/otel: Enhance `grpc.subchannel.disconnections` metric by adding disconnection reason to the `grpc.disconnect_error` label ([gRFC A94](https://github.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A94-subchannel-otel-metrics.md)). This provides granular insights into why subchannels are closing. ([#&#8203;8973](grpc/grpc-go#8973))
- mem: Add `mem.Buffer.Slice()` API to slice the buffer like a slice. ([#&#8203;8977](grpc/grpc-go#8977))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;ash2k](https://github.com/ash2k)

### Performance Improvements

- alts: Pool read buffers to lower memory utilization when sockets are unreadable. ([#&#8203;8964](grpc/grpc-go#8964))
- transport: Pool HTTP/2 framer read buffers to reduce idle memory consumption. Currently limited to Linux for ALTS and non-encrypted transports (TCP, Unix). To disable, set `GRPC_GO_EXPERIMENTAL_HTTP_FRAMER_READ_BUFFER_POOLING=false` and report any issues. ([#&#8203;9032](grpc/grpc-go#9032))

### [`v1.80.0`](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/releases/tag/v1.80.0): Release 1.80.0

[Compare Source](grpc/grpc-go@v1.79.3...v1.80.0)

### Behavior Changes

- balancer: log a warning if a balancer is registered with uppercase letters, as balancer names should be lowercase. In a future release, balancer names will be treated as case-insensitive; see [#&#8203;5288](grpc/grpc-go#5288) for details. ([#&#8203;8837](grpc/grpc-go#8837))
- xds: update resource error handling and re-resolution logic ([#&#8203;8907](grpc/grpc-go#8907))
  - Re-resolve all `LOGICAL_DNS` clusters simultaneously when re-resolution is requested.
  - Fail all in-flight RPCs immediately upon receipt of listener or route resource errors, instead of allowing them to complete.

### Bug Fixes

- xds: support the LB policy configured in `LOGICAL_DNS` cluster resources instead of defaulting to `pick_first`. ([#&#8203;8733](grpc/grpc-go#8733))
- credentials/tls: perform per-RPC authority validation against the leaf certificate instead of the entire peer certificate chain. ([#&#8203;8831](grpc/grpc-go#8831))
- xds: enabling A76 ring hash endpoint keys no longer causes EDS resources with invalid proxy metadata to be NACKed when HTTP CONNECT (gRFC A86) is disabled. ([#&#8203;8875](grpc/grpc-go#8875))
- xds: validate that the sum of endpoint weights in a locality does not exceed the maximum `uint32` value. ([#&#8203;8899](grpc/grpc-go#8899))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;RAVEYUS](https://github.com/RAVEYUS)
- xds: fix incorrect proto field access in the weighted round robin (WRR) configuration where `blackout_period` was used instead of `weight_expiration_period`. ([#&#8203;8915](grpc/grpc-go#8915))
  - Special Thanks: [@&#8203;gregbarasch](https://github.com/gregbarasch)
- xds/rbac: handle addresses with ports in IP matchers. ([#&#8203;8990](grpc/grpc-go#8990))

### New Features

- ringhash: enable gRFC A76 (endpoint hash keys and request hash headers) by default. ([#&#8203;8922](grpc/grpc-go#8922))

### Performance Improvements

- credentials/alts: pool write buffers to reduce memory allocations and usage. ([#&#8203;8919](grpc/grpc-go#8919))
- grpc: enable the use of pooled write buffers for buffering HTTP/2 frame writes by default. This reduces memory usage when connections are idle. Use the [WithSharedWriteBuffer](https://pkg.go.dev/google.golang.org/grpc#WithSharedWriteBuffer) dial option or the [SharedWriteBuffer](https://pkg.go.dev/google.golang.org/grpc#SharedWriteBuffer) server option to disable this feature. ([#&#8203;8957](grpc/grpc-go#8957))
- xds/priority: stop caching child LB policies removed from the configuration. This will help reduce memory and cpu usage when localities are constantly switching between priorities. ([#&#8203;8997](grpc/grpc-go#8997))
- mem: add a faster tiered buffer pool; use the experimental [mem.NewBinaryTieredBufferPool](https://pkg.go.dev/google.golang.org/grpc/mem@master#NewBinaryTieredBufferPool) function to create such pools. ([#&#8203;8775](grpc/grpc-go#8775))
