CVE-2022-41915
First published: Tue Dec 13 2022(Updated: )
Netty is vulnerable to HTTP response splitting attacks, caused by a flaw when calling DefaultHttpHeaders.set with an iterator of values. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject arbitrary HTTP/1.1 response header in some form and cause the server to return a split response, once the URL is clicked. This would allow the attacker to perform further attacks, such as Web cache poisoning or cross-site scripting, and possibly obtain sensitive information.
