Unauthenticated header injection via unsanitized status parameter
Published May 13, 2026 · Updated May 13, 2026
CRLF injection in affected WebPros cPanel and WP Squared releases allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary HTTP response headers. The unauthenticated /unprotected/nova_error handler in cpsrvd places the status query value into an HTTP response without neutralizing carriage-return and line-feed sequences. Network access to the endpoint is sufficient; attacker-controlled headers can alter response handling, but no code execution or server compromise is reported.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=11.132.0.0 <11.132.0.32
- Affected versionversion=11.134.0.0 <11.134.0.26
