EUVDB-ID: #VU77305

Risk: High

CWE-ID: CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to the usage of a vector called parameter cloaking. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted HTTP request, smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers and cause a difference in the interpretation of the request between the proxy (running with default configuration) and the server.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
