Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SurfControl SuperScout (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue allows local users to bypass filtering by fragmenting packets. This is possible because SurfControl SuperScout only filters packets that contain both an HTTP GET request and a Host header. By fragmenting packets so that no single packet contains both data elements, users can circumvent the filtering mechanism.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
