Title: 8E6 Technologies R3000 Host Header Internet Filter Security Bypass Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
The 8e6 Technologies R3000 Internet Filter is an appliance for filtering internet traffic.
The appliance is prone to a vulnerability that allows attackers to bypass URI filters. Specifically, the device fails to adequately filter HTTP requests that contain a decoy host header. Note that this issue applies only to DNS names, not IP addresses assigned to host headers.
Successful exploits allow attackers to view sites that the device is meant to block. This could aid in further attacks.
R3000 Internet Filter 2.0.12.10 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
Affected Products:
- 8E6 Technologies R3000 Internet Filter 2.0.12.10 (firmware)
