Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Cisco ACE XML Gateway (AXG) and ACE Web Application Firewall (WAF) versions prior to 6.1

Description The issue allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via an HTTP request that lacks a handler. This can be demonstrated by an OPTIONS request or a crafted GET request, leading to a Message-handling Errors message containing a certain client intranet IP address.

Recommendations For versions prior to 6.1, update to version 6.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the HTTP endpoints that handle OPTIONS and GET requests until a patch is available.
