Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache HTTP Server versions prior to 2.4.55
Description
The issue is related to the mod proxy module in Apache HTTP Server, where it fails to properly handle CRLF sequences in HTTP headers. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to perform HTTP response splitting attacks. A malicious backend can cause response headers to be truncated early, resulting in some headers being incorporated into the response body, which can bypass security measures if those headers have a security purpose.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.4.55, update to Apache HTTP Server version 2.4.55 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the mod proxy module to minimize the risk of exploitation.
