Vulnerability Details
CVEID:
CVE-2016-2086
DESCRIPTION:
Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by the improper
handling of the Content-Length header. A remote attacker could send a
specially-crafted request in a malformed chunked header to the Web server to
cause multiple processing conflicts on the servers. An attacker could exploit
this vulnerability to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall
protection, and conduct XSS attacks.
CVSS Base Score: 6.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/110530
for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID:
CVE-2016-2216
DESCRIPTION:
Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP response splitting attacks, caused by improper
validation of user-supplied input when processing malicious requests. A
remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject arbitrary HTTP
headers containing unicode charactesr and cause the server to return a split
response, once the URL is clicked. This would allow the attacker to perform
further attacks, such as Web cache poisoning or cross-site scripting, and
possibly obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base Score: 6.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/110529

CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID:
CVE-2015-3197
DESCRIPTION:
OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks,
caused by an error related to the negotiation of disabled SSLv2 ciphers by
malicious SSL/TLS clients. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to
conduct man-in-the-middle attacks.
CVSS Base Score: 5.4
