  • CVE-2016-6287HigJan 10, 2017
    risk 0.49cvss 7.5epss 0.01

    The "http-client" egg always used a HTTP_PROXY environment variable to determine whether HTTP traffic should be routed via a proxy, even when running as a CGI process. Under several web servers this would mean a user-supplied "Proxy" header could allow an attacker to direct all HTTP requests through a proxy (also known as a "httpoxy" attack). This affects all versions of http-client before 0.10.

  • CVE-2016-6286HigJan 10, 2017
    risk 0.49cvss 7.5epss 0.01

    The "spiffy-cgi-handlers" egg would convert a nonexistent "Proxy" header to the HTTP_PROXY environment variable, which would allow attackers to direct CGI programs which use this environment variable to use an attacker-specified HTTP proxy server (also known as a "httpoxy" attack). This affects all versions of spiffy-cgi-handlers before 0.5.
