Descriptions

setup/controllers/language.php in MODX Revolution 2.5.4-pl and earlier does not properly constrain the language parameter, which allows remote attackers to conduct Cookie-Bombing attacks and cause a denial of service (cookie quota exhaustion), or conduct HTTP Response Splitting attacks with resultant XSS, via an invalid parameter value.

setup/controllers/language.php en MODX Revolution 2.5.4-pl y versiones anteriores no restringe adecuadamente el parámetro language, lo que permite a atacantes remotos llevar a cabo ataques de bombardeo de cookies y provocar una denegación de servicio (agotamiento de la cuota de cookie), o llevar a cabo ataques HTTP Response Splitting con XSS resultante, a través de un valor de parámetro no válido.
