  2. HTTP response splitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_response_splitting

    Per the HTTP standard (RFC 2616), headers are separated by one CRLF and the response's headers are separated from its body by two. Therefore, the failure to remove CRs and LFs allows the attacker to set arbitrary headers, take control of the body, or break the response into two or more separate responses—hence the name.

  3. Basic access authentication - Wikipedia

    The authorization method and a space character (e.g. "Basic ") is then prepended to the encoded string. For example, if the browser uses Aladdin as the username and open sesame as the password, then the field's value is the Base64 encoding of Aladdin:open sesame, or QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==. Then the Authorization header field will appear as:

  4. Cross-origin resource sharing - Wikipedia

    Here, service.example.com uses CORS to permit the browser to authorize www.example.com to make requests to service.example.com. If a site specifies the header "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials:true", third-party sites may be able to carry out privileged actions and retrieve sensitive information.

  5. React (software) - Wikipedia

    React itself does not come with built-in support for routing. React is primarily a library for building user interfaces, and it does not include a full-fledged routing solution out of the box. Third-party libraries can be used to handle routing in React applications. [30]

  6. User-Agent header - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User-Agent_header

    In computing, the User-Agent header is an HTTP header intended to identify the user agent responsible for making a given HTTP request. Whereas the character sequence User-Agent comprises the name of the header itself, the header value that a given user agent uses to identify itself is colloquially known as its user agent string .

  7. Digest access authentication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication

    Digest access authentication is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. For example, a MITM attacker could tell clients to use basic access authentication or legacy RFC2069 digest access authentication mode. To extend this further, digest access authentication provides no mechanism for clients to verify the server's identity

  8. Authentication protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authentication_protocol

    Then he sends a packet saying "Authentication successful" or "Authentication failed" based on the result. [3] This is an example of a very basic authentication protocol vulnerable to many threats such as eavesdropping, replay attack, man-in-the-middle attacks, dictionary attacks or brute-force attacks. Most authentication protocols are more ...

  9. Extensible Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensible_Authentication...

    Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is an authentication framework frequently used in network and internet connections. It is defined in RFC 3748, which made RFC 2284 obsolete, and is updated by RFC 5247. EAP is an authentication framework for providing the transport and usage of material and parameters generated by EAP methods.
