25
FAUCET Score

CVE-2016-0400 is a CRLF injection vulnerability affecting IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale versions 7.1.0, 7.1.1, 8.5, and 8.6. This flaw allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and perform HTTP response splitting attacks through a specially crafted URL. With a CVSS score of 6.1 (Medium), it has a network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requires user interaction, potentially leading to limited impact on confidentiality and integrity. While the FAUCET Risk Score is high at 84/100, there is no evidence of active exploitation, no known Metasploit or Nuclei modules, and limited community discussion, despite an unrelated ExploitDB entry.
