CWE ID 20

Summary

CVE-2024-1019 is a vulnerability affecting ModSecurity and its version 3.0.0 to 3.0.11. The issue arises due to ModSecurity decoding percent-encoded characters in request URLs before separating the path component, leading to a path-based WAF bypass. This creates a discrepancy between ModSecurity and RFC-compliant back-end applications, causing an attack payload to hide in the path component of the URL. Back-end applications that construct queries using the path component are at risk. Users and integrators are urged to upgrade to ModSecurity version 3.0.12 to mitigate this vulnerability. Version 2 of ModSecurity remains unaffected.
