Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2020-06-08 17:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 03:21
Severity
7.5 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
Summary
The dashboard in WhiteSource Application Vulnerability Management (AVM) before version 20.4.1 allows Log Injection via a %0A%0D substring in the idp parameter to the /saml/login URI. This closes the current log and creates a new log with one line of data. The attacker can also insert malicious data and false entries.
