CVE-2022-39957
The OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set (CRS) is affected by a response body bypass. A client can issue an HTTP Accept header field containing an optional "charset" parameter in order to receive the response in an encoded form. Depending on the "charset", this response can not be decoded by the web application firewall. A restricted resource, access to which would ordinarily be detected, may therefore bypass detection. The legacy CRS versions 3.0.x and 3.1.x are affected, as well as the currently supported versions 3.2.1 and 3.3.2. Integrators and users are advised to upgrade to 3.2.2 and 3.3.3 respectively.

Un cliente puede emitir un campo de encabezado HTTP Accept que contenga un parámetro opcional \"charset\" para recibir la respuesta de forma codificada. En función del \"charset\", esta respuesta puede no ser descodificada por el firewall de la aplicación web. Por lo tanto, un recurso restringido, cuyo acceso sería detectado normalmente, puede omitir la detección. Están afectadas las versiones 3.0.x y 3.1.x del CRS heredado, así como las versiones 3.2.1 y 3.3.2 actualmente soportadas. Es recomendado a integradores y usuarios actualizar a versiones 3.2.2 y 3.3.3 respectivamente"
