Advisories for Npm/@Fastify/Middie package

A path normalization inconsistency in @fastify/middie can result in authentication/authorization bypass when using path-scoped middleware (for example, app.use('/secret', auth)). When Fastify router normalization options are enabled (such as ignoreDuplicateSlashes, useSemicolonDelimiter, and related trailing-slash behavior), crafted request paths may bypass middleware checks while still being routed to protected handlers.

A security vulnerability exists in @fastify/middie where middleware registered with a specific path prefix can be bypassed using URL-encoded characters (e.g., /%61dmin instead of /admin). While the middleware engine fails to match the encoded path and skips execution, the underlying Fastify router correctly decodes the path and matches the route handler, allowing attackers to access protected endpoints without the middleware constraints.
