Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.31% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: azl3 busybox 1.36.1-27 on Azure Linux 3.0 Release Notes; cbl2 busybox 1.35.0-18 on CBL-Mariner 2.0 Release Notes.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to azl3 busybox 1.36.1-27 on Azure Linux 3.0 Release Notes; cbl2 busybox 1.35.0-18 on CBL-Mariner 2.0 Release Notes or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

BusyBox wget thru 1.3.7 accepted raw CR (0x0D)/LF (0x0A) and other C0 control bytes in the HTTP request-target (path/query), allowing the request line to be split and attacker-controlled headers to be injected. To preserve the HTTP/1.1 request-line shape METHOD SP request-target SP HTTP/1.1, a raw space (0x20) in the request-target must also be rejected (clients should use %20).
