Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-93•Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences ('CRLF Injection')

    The product uses CRLF (carriage return line feeds) as a special element, e.g. to separate lines or records, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes CRLF sequences from inputs.

  • CWE-113•Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Request/Response Splitting')

    The product receives data from an HTTP agent/component (e.g., web server, proxy, browser, etc.), but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes CR and LF characters before the data is included in outgoing HTTP headers.
