UI Redressing Mayhem: HTTPOnly Bypass PayPwn Style

Luca De Fulgentis · blog.nibblesec.org

CVE-2012-0053 makes Apache echo request headers into a 400 error page, so an overlong cookie forces HttpOnly session cookies into readable HTML. On PayPal a history.paypal.com endpoint set an attacker-controlled monster cookie for .paypal.com in a single request, and framing the affected b.stats.paypal.com lifted the session cookies cross-domain.
