CiscoWorks Prime LAN Management Solution CRLF Injection and HTTP Response Splitting Vulnerability

Cisco-SA-20120510-CVE-2011-4237 · Medium · Published · Updated

Cisco Prime LAN Management Solution versions prior to 4.2 contain a vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to inject arbitrary code and conduct HTTP response-splitting attacks on a targeted system. The vulnerability exists because the affected software improperly sanitizes user-supplied input while handling HTTP headers.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker could exploit the vulnerability by convincing a user to follow a malicious link.  If successful, the attacker could conduct carriage return-line feed (CRLF) injection and HTTP response-splitting attacks against the user. Cisco has confirmed this vulnerability and released updated software. To exploit the vulnerability, the attacker may provide a link that directs a user to a malicious site and use misleading language or instructions to persuade the user to follow the provided link.
