Official description
JUNG Smart Visu Server 1.1.1050 contains a request header manipulation vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to override request URLs by injecting arbitrary values in the X-Forwarded-Host header. Attackers can manipulate proxied requests to generate tainted responses, enabling cache poisoning, potential phishing, and redirecting users to malicious domains.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of HTTP Headers for Scripting Syntax
The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes web scripting syntax in HTTP headers that can be used by web browser components that can process raw headers, such as Flash.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Carefully control data that is being placed both in HTTP response headers and in the HTTP response body to ensure that no scripting syntax is present, taking various encodings into account. Perform output validation in order to filter/escape/encode unsafe data that is being passed from the server in an HTTP response header.
- Disable script execution functionality in the clients' browser.
