Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2880)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform parameter smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of requests forwarded by ReverseProxy in net/http/httputil. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted parameters that cannot be parsed and are rejected by net/http and force the application to include these parameters into the forwarding request. As a result, a remote attacker can smuggle potentially dangerous HTTP parameters into the request.
