[ADVISORY] NetCache URL DoS - Argentinian ISP

A DoS vulnerability exists in NetCache proxies of at least some areas
of Speedy Argentina ISP (201.255.64/18), by which a URL could be rendered
inaccessible by means of the prefetch cache control directive.

The procedure is very simple, sending several times a simple GET
HTTP/1.1 request to the victim URL will make the proxies no longer
serve it. Users will be waiting for about two minutes and then the TCP
connection will be closed, which depending on the user agent it will
be interpreted as a valid zero-length HTTP 0.9 reply or an error.

It is worth noting that this attack affects the URL EXACTLY. For

PR07-37: XSS on Apache HTTP Server 413 error pages via malformed HTTP method

 One 'Content-length:' header equals to two values. i.e.: "Content-length: 0, 0"
 One 'Content-length:' header equals to a negative value. i.e.: "Content-length: -1"
 One 'Content-length:' header equals to a large value. i.e.: "Content-length: 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999"


Apache 2.X returns a '413 Request Entity Too Large' error, when submitting invalid length data. When probing for XSS on the error page returned by the server we have 3 possible string vectors:

 The 'Host:' header
 The URL
 The HTTP method


CVE-2010-2375: WebLogic Plugin HTTP Injection via Encoded URLs

- ----------------------
Over the last several years, VSR analysts had observed unusual behavior
in multiple WebLogic deployments when certain special characters were
URL encoded and appended to URLs.  In late April, 2010 VSR began
researching this more in depth and found that the issue could allow for
HTTP header injection and HTTP request smuggling attacks.


Product Background

WebLogic application server is commonly deployed in a three-tier

RE: Squid URL Filtering Bypass

To be clear, the CONNECT request is a single request/response cycle  between the client and the proxy.  Any request body is nonsensical and should be ignored by the proxy (or the request can be rejected if the proxy wants to be pedantic).  There is nothing that explicitly disallows inclusion of the host header in a CONNECT request.  Granted, including the host header incurs some degree of ambiguity (the FQDN may resolve to the IP address, but the IP address is not guaranteed to resolve to the FQDN), but this is clearly a debatable choice on the developer's part as to whether it should be used to determine traffic policy applicability for this request.

The proxy should only ignore further data between the client and remote if the proxy successfully established a TCP connection between them on the specified destination port.
IOW, if the client sends a CONNECT request that the proxy policy allows, the proxy should either queue or reject further communication from the client until the TCP connection has been successfully established and the proxy has responded to the client with "HTTP 200".
If the connection attempt fails, the proxy should provide an HTTP error response to the client and close the client-to-proxy connection.

Likewise, while the proxy does establish the end-to-end TCP connection between the client and upstream server, it is not responsible for any part of the encryption that may be involved in that communication - unless it specifically offers a "trusted MitM" feature such as TMG HTTPS Inspection or Juniper SSL Forward Proxy (other vendors have similar features).

Also, whether the McAffee proxy allows translating normal HTTP methods to CONNECT, then tunneling them to the upstream proxy is irrelevant to the question of whether the local proxy actually uses the host header or the host portion of the CONNECT request to determine policy applicability.

Memory corruption in Postfix SMTP server Cyrus SASL support (CVE-2011-1720)

According to a comment in a Cyrus SASL include source file, a server
must not reuse a Cyrus SASL server handle after client authentication
failure. Instead, a server must create a new Cyrus SASL server
handle including mechanism list, before processing another client
authentication request.

The Postfix SMTP server fails to create a new Cyrus SASL server
handle after authentication failure. This causes memory corruption
when, for example, a client requests CRAM-MD5 authentication, fails
to authenticate, and then invokes some other authentication mechanism

(TAD-2011-001) Vulnerability in HTC Peep: Twitter Credentials Disclosure

-- Vulnerability description: 

The default Twitter client (or application) in HTC mobile devices is called HTC Peep. HTC Peep is vulnerable to two different credentials disclosure vulnerabilities during the authentication process against the Twitter service (twitter.com).

During the authentication process, the HTC Peep app establishes an HTTP (TCP/80) connection against the twitter.com servers, sending a few HTTP OAuth-related requests. The first two HTTP GET requests try to gather and make use of an OAuth token: "GET /oauth/request_token" (the response contains the "oauth_token") and "GET /oauth/authorize?oauth_token=...". 

The first vulnerability resides in the third HTTP request, a POST request towards the "/oauth/authorize" resource, which contains several parameters, including the Twitter username and password in the clear, making the authentication process vulnerable to eavesdropping attacks:

authenticity_token=c8b5abaf53f223e827d9258ddfef4285a816db5f&

Description:
For performance reasons, information parsed from a request is often
cached in two places: the internal request object and the internal
processor object. These objects are not recycled at exactly the same time.
When certain errors occur that needed to be added to the access log, the
access logging process triggers the re-population of the request object
after it has been recycled. However, the request object was not recycled

Re: Squid URL Filtering Bypass

command which doesn't allow this header at all as it makes no sense. I
haven't confirmed the bug but what's being described is definitely a
vulnerability.

There's also a small misconception in what you said. The proxy will
see the entire CONNECT request, headers and all - after the request
headers there'll be a pair of newlines, and only *then* the remaining
data is tunneled transparently. So it's the second request's headers
that the proxy won't see.

Aruba Advisory ID: AID-020810 TLS Protocol Session Renegotiation Security Vulnerability

The only ArubaOS component that seems affected by this issue is the
HTTPS WebUI administration interface. If a client browser (victim) is
configured to authenticate to the WebUI over HTTPS using a client
certificate, an attacker can potentially use the victim's credentials
temporarily to execute arbitrary HTTP request for each initiation of an
HTTPS session from the victim to the WebUI. This would happen without
any HTTPS/TLS warnings to the victim. This condition can essentially be
exploited by an attacker for command injection in beginning of a HTTPS
session between the victim and the ArubaOS WebUI.

6.0.18 rejects all requests where the decoded value changes the path
representation, but is still exposed due to this vector in other
