Descriptions

In Apache HTTP server 2.4.0 to 2.4.39, Redirects configured with mod_rewrite that were intended to be self-referential might be fooled by encoded newlines and redirect instead to an unexpected URL within the request URL.

En el servidor HTTP Apache versiones 2.4.0 hasta 2.4.39, los Redireccionamientos configurados con mod_rewrite que fueron previstos a estar auto referenciados podrían ser engañados por nuevas líneas codificadas y redireccionadas a una URL inesperada dentro de la URL de la petición.

A vulnerability was discovered in Apache httpd, in mod_rewrite. Certain self-referential mod_rewrite rules could be fooled by encoded newlines, causing them to redirect to an unexpected location. An attacker could abuse this flaw in a phishing attack or as part of a client-side attack on browsers.
