Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass host-based security decisions.
The vulnerability exists due to interpretation conflict in URI authority host parsing when processing a URL containing an unclosed or misplaced bracket in the authority. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted URL to bypass host-based security decisions.
This issue can occur when an application evaluates policy using the parsed host value and then sends the original URL through an HTTP client that resolves the host differently.
