Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Mambo 4.6.4 (Content Management System). This affects an unknown functionality. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a code injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-94. The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment. This is going to have an impact on integrity. The summary by CVE is:

CRLF injection vulnerability in Mambo before 4.6.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks via unspecified vectors.

The weakness was released 05/28/2008 (Website). The advisory is shared at securityfocus.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2008-2497 since 05/28/2008. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. It demands that the victim is doing some kind of user interaction. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.
