NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lighttpd package and not the lighttpd package as distributed by Ubuntu.

mod_auth in lighttpd before 1.4.36 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary log entries via a basic HTTP authentication string without a colon character, as demonstrated by a string containing a NULL and new line character.
