Description

Possible CRLF injection allowing HTTP response splitting attacks for sites which use mod_userdir. This issue was mitigated by changes made in 2.4.25 and 2.2.32 which prohibit CR or LF injection into the "Location" or other outbound header key or value. Fixed in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.25 (Affected 2.4.1-2.4.23). Fixed in Apache HTTP Server 2.2.32 (Affected 2.2.0-2.2.31).. It was found that Apache was vulnerable to a HTTP response splitting attack for sites which use mod_userdir. An attacker could use this flaw to inject CRLF characters into the HTTP header and could possibly gain access to secure data.
