Descriptions

In PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.34, 7.3.x below 7.3.23 and 7.4.x below 7.4.11, when PHP is processing incoming HTTP cookie values, the cookie names are url-decoded. This may lead to cookies with prefixes like __Host confused with cookies that decode to such prefix, thus leading to an attacker being able to forge cookie which is supposed to be secure. See also CVE-2020-8184 for more information.

En PHP versiones 7.2.x por debajo de 7.2.34, versiones 7.3.x por debajo de 7.3.23 y versiones 7.4.x por debajo de 7.4.11, cuando PHP procesa valores de cookies HTTP entrantes, los nombres de las cookies se decodifican de la URL. Esto puede conllevar a que las cookies con prefijos como __Host se confundan con las cookies que decodifican dicho prefijo, lo que conlleva a que un atacante pueda falsificar una cookie que se supone que es segura. Consulte también CVE-2020-8184 para obtener más información
