Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.


1) CRLF injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11236)

CWE-ID: CWE-93 - Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences ('CRLF Injection')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient filtration of user-supplied data passed via HTTP request parameters to urllib3 library. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data that contains CRLF sequences and perform a spoofing attack.


2) CRLF injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26137)

CWE-ID: CWE-93 - Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences ('CRLF Injection')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary data in server response.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of attacker-supplied data passed via the "method" parameter. A remote authenticated attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application containing CR-LF characters and modify application behavior.


3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-33503)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in urllib3 when processing URL with multiple "@" characters in the authority component. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
