CVE-2016-0713
Description
Gorouter in Cloud Foundry cf-release v141 through v228 allows man-in-the-middle attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors related to modified requests.
AI Insight
LLM-synthesized narrative grounded in this CVE's description and references.
Man-in-the-middle attackers can conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks on Cloud Foundry Gorouter by injecting malicious code into modified requests, affecting cf-release v141 through v228.
Vulnerability
Gorouter in Cloud Foundry cf-release versions v141 through v228 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via man-in-the-middle attacks. A malicious intermediary that can modify requests from a client to the router can inject arbitrary code, which is then executed on the client's operating system [1].
Exploitation
An attacker must have a man-in-the-middle position between the client and Gorouter to intercept and modify requests. No authentication or user interaction is required beyond the attacker's ability to tamper with network traffic. The attacker modifies the request to include malicious script code [1].
Impact
Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution within the context of the client's operating system, allowing the attacker to perform actions such as stealing cookies, redirecting to malicious sites, or further compromising the client. According to the advisory, this vulnerability does not pose a risk for penetration of Cloud Foundry system components or hosted applications [1].
Mitigation
The vulnerability is fixed in cf-release v229, released on January 22, 2016. Cloud Foundry deployments using Gorouter should upgrade to v229 or later. No workarounds are documented [1].
