Resin < 4.0.40 Incorrect Unicode Transformations

medium Web App Scanning Plugin ID 112673

Synopsis

Resin < 4.0.40 Incorrect Unicode Transformations

Description

The version of Resin installed on the remote host perform incorrect Unicode transformations on output to HTTP responses for ISO-8859-1. This allows an attacker to bypass filtering/encoding/validation done prior to the output transformation. Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Resin version 4.0.40 or later.
