VAR-200905-0167
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:09Armorlogic Profense Web Application Firewall before 2.2.22, and 2.4.x before 2.4.4, does not properly implement the "negative model," which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a modified end tag of a SCRIPT element. Profense Web Application Firewall is prone to multiple security-bypass vulnerabilities. An attacker can exploit these issues to bypass certain security restrictions and perform various web-application attacks. Versions prior to the following are vulnerable: Profense 2.4.4 Profense 2.2.22. 0A (encoded newline) bypasses XSS protection mechanisms and executes arbitrary code within the user's browser session
