Technical details
The vulnerability is an improper cookie domain validation flaw in the Http Client CookieCollection class that uses unanchored suffix matching rather than proper domain validation. An attacker controlling a host (e.g., one ending in a victim domain suffix) or sending Set-Cookie Domain values for unrelated hosts can exploit this to inject or steal cookies. The attack requires network interaction with the vulnerable client making HTTP requests to attacker-controlled or compromised servers.
