CVE-2020-7070

PHP parses encoded cookie names so malicious `__Host-` cookies can be sent

Published Oct 2, 2020 CVSS 3.1 · 4.3 Medium EPSS 5.0% KEV · Not listed
Description
In PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.34, 7.3.x below 7.3.23 and 7.4.x below 7.4.11, when PHP is processing incoming HTTP cookie values, the cookie names are url-decoded. This may lead to cookies with prefixes like __Host confused with cookies that decode to such prefix, thus leading to an attacker being able to forge cookie which is supposed to be secure. See also CVE-2020-8184 for more information.
