2021-04 Security Bulletin: Junos OS: J-Web has an Improper Neutralization of
CRLF Sequences in its HTTP Headers which allows an attacker to carry out multiple
types of attacks. (CVE-2021-0268)
Article ID : JSA11159
Last Updated: 26 May 2021
Version : 2.0
Product Affected:
This issue affects Junos OS 18.1, 18.2, 18.3, 18.4, 19.1, 19.2, 19.3, 19.4,
20.1.
Problem:
An Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Response
Splitting') weakness in J-web of Juniper Networks Junos OS leads to buffer
overflows, segment faults, or other impacts, which allows an attacker to modify
the integrity of the device and exfiltration information from the device
without authentication.
The weakness can be exploited to facilitate cross-site scripting (XSS), cookie
manipulation (modifying session cookies, stealing cookies) and more. This
weakness can also be exploited by directing a user to a seemingly legitimate link
from the affected site.
The attacker requires no special access or permissions to the device to carry out
such attacks.
This issue affects:
Juniper Networks Junos OS:
o 18.1 versions prior to 18.1R3-S11;
o 18.2 versions prior to 18.2R3-S5;
