Title: Jetty Terminal Escape Sequence in Logs Command Injection Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
Jetty is a Java-based webserver available for various operating systems.
Jetty is prone to a command-injection vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input written to logfiles via HTTP Content-Length headers. Specifically, the software fails to properly filter escape sequences before writing to logfiles. Attackers can leverage this issue to run arbitrary commands if the log entries are viewed in a terminal.
