Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU55969
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-39240
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when processing HTTP/2 requests. HAProxy does not ensure that the scheme and path portions of a URI have the expected characters, e.g. the authority field on a target HTTP/2 server might differ from what the routing rules were intended to achieve.
A remote attacker can send specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions.
Install updates from vendor's repository.

2) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU55970
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-39241
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in HAProxy. An HTTP method name may contain a space followed by the name of a protected resource. It is possible that a server would interpret this as a request for that protected resource, such as in the "GET /admin? HTTP/1.1 /static/images HTTP/1.1" example.
The attacker can abuse such behavior to bypass implemented security restrictions and perform unauthorized actions against the web application behind the HAProxy.

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-39242
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when processing HTTP headers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted Host header to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions.
