Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Detect Host Header Injection probe: look for HTTP GET / requests where the Host header is set to a random/unexpected external domain (not the server's hostname), followed by a 302 redirect response whose Location header reflects the injected Host value. ↗
- →Confirm target is Avigilon ACM by checking HTTP response body contains both 'Avigilon' and 'Access Control Manager' strings before probing for Host Header Injection. ↗
- →A successful exploitation attempt results in an HTTP 302 redirect where the Location header reflects the attacker-controlled Host header value injected in the request. ↗
- ·Vulnerability is confirmed only against Avigilon ACM version 7.10.0.20; other versions are not specified as affected. ↗
- ·The Nuclei template uses a two-step flow: the first request fingerprints the target as Avigilon ACM before the injection probe is sent, reducing false positives. ↗
