What is CVE-2021-3524?

CVE-2021-3524 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Debian Debian Linux, published on 17 May 2021. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

A flaw was found in the Red Hat Ceph Storage RadosGW (Ceph Object Gateway) in versions before 14.2.21. The vulnerability is related to the injection of HTTP headers via a CORS ExposeHeader tag. The newline character in the ExposeHeader tag in the CORS configuration file generates a header injection in the response when the CORS request is made. In addition, the prior bug fix for CVE-2020-10753 did not account for the use of \r as a header separator, thus a new flaw has been created.

Weakness: CWE-74, CWE-20
