Abstract

HTTP Response Splitting or CRLF injection is an attack technique which enables various attacks such as web cache poisoning, cross user defacement, hijacking pages with sensitive user information and our favorite, cross-site scripting (XSS). This attack technique, and the derived attacks from it, are relevant to most web environments and is the result of the application’s failure to reject illegal user input, in this case,
input containing malicious or unexpected characters.

The talk will cover the concept of the attack and will take you through some use cases.
