Description
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Header injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6889)
CWE-ID: CWE-113 - Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Response Splitting')
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP header injection attack or even trigger arbitrary user re-direction on the target system.

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform CSRF attack.
The weakness exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input by the User Permissions page. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted HTTP request, trick the victim into visiting it, create, delete or modify a user account and perform cross-site scripting attacks, Web cache poisoning, and other malicious activities.
