Description:
Several vulnerabilities were reported in Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway. A remote user can cause denial of service conditions. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks. A remote user can conduct HTTP response splitting attacks.
A remote user can send a specially crafted cookie containing a null value to cause the target IIS web service to crash [CVE-2011-2012].
A remote user can create a specially crafted URL that, when loaded by a target user, will cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the target user's browser [CVE-2011-1896, CVE-2011-1897]. The code will originate from the site running the Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway software and will run in the security context of that site. As a result, the code will be able to access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the target user.
A remote user can submit a specially crafted URL to cause the target server to return a split response [CVE-2011-1895]. A remote user can exploit this to spoof content on the target server, attempt to poison any intermediate web caches, or conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Tenable Network Security reported three of these vulnerabilities.
