CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-601  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade zendframework/zend-http to version 2.8.1 or higher.

Overview

zendframework/zend-http provides the HTTP message abstraction used by zend-mvc, and also provides an extensible, adapter-driven HTTP client library.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to an Arbitrary URL Rewrite vulnerability. The request URI marshaling process contains logic that inspects HTTP request headers that are specific to a given server-side URL rewrite mechanism.

When these headers are present on systems not running the specific URL rewriting mechanism, the URLs are subject to rewriting, allowing a malicious client or proxy to emulate the headers to request arbitrary content.
