A security issue was identified in the range filter module of nginx < 1.13.3. A specially crafted request might result in an integer overflow and incorrect processing of ranges, potentially resulting in sensitive information leak. |

When using nginx with standard modules this allows an attacker to obtain a cache file header if a response was returned from cache. In some configurations a cache file header may contain IP address of the backend server or other sensitive information. Besides, with 3rd party modules it is potentially possible that the issue may lead to a denial of service or a disclosure of a worker process memory. No such modules are currently known though. |
