CVE-2022-35507: Proxmox - CRLF Injection

id: CVE-2022-35507

info:
  name: Proxmox - CRLF Injection
  author: DhiyaneshDk
  severity: high
  description: |
    A response-header CRLF injection vulnerability in the Proxmox Virtual Environment (PVE) and Proxmox Mail Gateway (PMG) web interface allows a remote attacker to set cookies for a victim's browser that are longer than the server expects, causing a client-side DoS. This affects Chromium-based browsers because they allow injection of response headers with %0d. This is fixed in pve-http-server 4.1-3.
  impact: |
    Attackers can inject response headers with CRLF characters to set malicious cookies in victims' Chromium-based browsers, causing client-side denial of service and potentially facilitating session fixation attacks on Proxmox users.
  remediation: |
    Update pve-http-server to version 4.1-3 or later that properly validates and strips CRLF characters from response headers.
