RHSA-2017_0247
Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2017-02-02 20:23 - Updated: 2024-12-01 12:03It was discovered that the code that parsed the HTTP request line permitted invalid characters. This could be exploited, in conjunction with a proxy that also permitted the invalid characters but with a different interpretation, to inject data into the HTTP response. By manipulating the HTTP response the attacker could poison a web-cache, perform an XSS attack, or obtain sensitive information from requests other then their own.
It was discovered that when configuring RBAC and marking information as sensitive, users with a Monitor role are able to view the sensitive information.
CWE-200 - Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized ActorAn EAP feature to download server log files allows logs to be available via GET requests making them vulnerable to cross-origin attacks. An attacker could trigger the user's browser to request the log files consuming enough resources that normal server functioning could be impaired.
