Description: HTTP Response Splitting is an attack technique that manipulates HTTP responses to inject malicious content into communications between a server and a client. This type of attack relies on exploiting vulnerabilities in web applications, where an attacker can intercept or modify the responses sent by a server to a browser. By doing so, the attacker can inject malicious scripts, redirect users to fraudulent sites, or even steal sensitive information. Manipulating HTTP responses can lead to unauthorized code execution in the user’s browser, resulting in credential theft, malware installation, or fraud. This technique is particularly dangerous because it can be difficult to detect and can affect a large number of users simultaneously. Protection against such attacks requires a combination of security measures, including input validation, the use of HTTPS, and the implementation of Content Security Policies (CSP).
