CVSS v3.1 |
| jetty 6.0.x (jetty6) beta16 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary script source code via a capital P in the .jsp extension, and probably other mixed case manipulations. |
| Novell eDirectory 8.6.2 and 8.7 use case insensitive passwords, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force password guessing. |
| Task Manager in Windows 2000 does not allow local users to end processes with uppercase letters named (1) winlogon.exe, (2) csrss.exe, (3) smss.exe and (4) services.exe via the Process tab which could allow local users to install Trojan horses that cannot be stopped with the Task Manager. |
| Netscape FastTrack Web server lists files when a lowercase "get" command is used instead of an uppercase GET. |
| The default configuration of BEA WebLogic 3.1.8 through 4.5.1 allows a remote attacker to view source code of a JSP program by requesting a URL which provides the JSP extension in upper case. |
| Mbedthis AppWeb HTTP server before 1.1.3 allows remote attackers to bypass access restrictions via a URI with mixed case characters. |
| Norton Anti-Virus (NAV) allows remote attackers to bypass content filtering via attachments whose Content-Type and Content-Disposition headers are mixed upper and lower case, which is ignored by some mail clients. |
| register.php in Ultimate PHP Board (UPB) 1.0 and 1.0b uses an administrative account Admin with a capital "A," but allows a remote attacker to impersonate the administrator by registering an account name of admin with a lower case "a." |
| The file extension check in GNUBoard 3.40 and earlier only verifies extensions that contain all lowercase letters, which allows remote attackers to upload arbitrary files via file extensions that include uppercase letters. |
| An issue was discovered in ONOS 2.5.1. An intent with an uppercase letter in a device ID shows the CORRUPT state, which is misleading to a network operator. Improper handling of case sensitivity causes inconsistency between intent and flow rules in the network. |
| A vulnerability in Spring LDAP allows data exposure for case sensitive comparisons.This issue affects Spring LDAP: from 2.4.0 through 2.4.3, from 3.0.0 through 3.0.9, from 3.1.0 through 3.1.7, from 3.2.0 through 3.2.7, AND all versions prior to 2.4.0.
The usage of String.toLowerCase() and String.toUpperCase() has some Locale dependent exceptions that could potentially result in unintended columns from being queried

| The fix for CVE-2022-22968 made disallowedFields patterns in DataBinder case insensitive. However, String.toLowerCase() has some Locale dependent exceptions that could potentially result in fields not protected as expected. |
| Python Social Auth is a social authentication/registration mechanism. Prior to version 5.4.1, due to default case-insensitive collation in MySQL or MariaDB databases, third-party authentication user IDs are not case-sensitive and could cause different IDs to match. This issue has been addressed by a fix released in version 5.4.1. An immediate workaround would be to change collation of the affected field. |
| Arbitrary File Overwrite in Eclipse JGit <= 6.6.0
In Eclipse JGit, all versions <= 6.6.0.202305301015-r, a symbolic link present in a specially crafted git repository can be used to write a file to locations outside the working tree when this repository is cloned with JGit to a case-insensitive filesystem, or when a checkout from a clone of such a repository is performed on a case-insensitive filesystem.
This can happen on checkout (DirCacheCheckout), merge (ResolveMerger via its WorkingTreeUpdater), pull (PullCommand using merge), and when applying a patch (PatchApplier). This can be exploited for remote code execution (RCE), for instance if the file written outside the working tree is a git filter that gets executed on a subsequent git command.
The issue occurs only on case-insensitive filesystems, like the default filesystems on Windows and macOS. The user performing the clone or checkout must have the rights to create symbolic links for the problem to occur, and symbolic links must be enabled in the git configuration.
Setting git configuration option core.symlinks = false before checking out avoids the problem.
The issue was fixed in Eclipse JGit version 6.6.1.202309021850-r and 6.7.0.202309050840-r, available via Maven Central https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/jgit/ and repo.eclipse.org https://repo.eclipse.org/content/repositories/jgit-releases/ . A backport is available in 5.13.3 starting from 5.13.3.202401111512-r.
The JGit maintainers would like to thank RyotaK for finding and reporting this issue.

| Improper sanitisation in `main/inc/lib/fileUpload.lib.php` in Chamilo LMS <= v1.11.20 on Windows and Apache installations allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass file upload security protections and obtain remote code execution via uploading of `.htaccess` file. This vulnerability may be exploited by privileged attackers or chained with unauthenticated arbitrary file write vulnerabilities, such as CVE-2023-3533, to achieve remote code execution. |
| Envoy is an open source edge and service proxy designed for cloud-native applications. Envoy allows mixed-case schemes in HTTP/2, however, some internal scheme checks are case-sensitive. Prior to versions 1.27.0, 1.26.4, 1.25.9, 1.24.10, and 1.23.12, this can lead to the rejection of requests with mixed-case schemes such as `htTp` or `htTps`, or the bypassing of some requests such as `https` in unencrypted connections. With a fix in versions 1.27.0, 1.26.4, 1.25.9, 1.24.10, and 1.23.12, Envoy will now lowercase scheme values by default, and change the internal scheme checks that were case-sensitive to be case-insensitive. There are no known workarounds for this issue. |
| In Spring Framework versions 5.3.0 - 5.3.18, 5.2.0 - 5.2.20, and older unsupported versions, the patterns for disallowedFields on a DataBinder are case sensitive which means a field is not effectively protected unless it is listed with both upper and lower case for the first character of the field, including upper and lower case for the first character of all nested fields within the property path. |
| Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in NPM urijs prior to 1.19.8. |
| An issue was discovered in Softwarebuero Zauner ARC 4.2.0.4. There is Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity, which makes password guessing easier. |
| Istio is an open source platform for providing a uniform way to integrate microservices, manage traffic flow across microservices, enforce policies and aggregate telemetry data. According to [RFC 4343](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4343), Istio authorization policy should compare the hostname in the HTTP Host header in a case insensitive way, but currently the comparison is case sensitive. The proxy will route the request hostname in a case-insensitive way which means the authorization policy could be bypassed. As an example, the user may have an authorization policy that rejects request with hostname "httpbin.foo" for some source IPs, but the attacker can bypass this by sending the request with hostname "Httpbin.Foo". Patches are available in Istio 1.11.1, Istio 1.10.4 and Istio 1.9.8. As a work around a Lua filter may be written to normalize Host header before the authorization check. This is similar to the Path normalization presented in the [Security Best Practices](https://istio.io/latest/docs/ops/best-practices/security/#case-normalization) guide. |
