Exploitation Summary
EIP tracks 1 public exploit for CVE-2002-0209. PoCs published by Dave Plonka.
AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit demonstrates an information leakage vulnerability in Alteon ACEdirector by leveraging TCP half-close to bypass load balancer traffic alteration, revealing the real IP addresses of backend web servers. It sends an HTTP request, shuts down the write half of the socket, and monitors responses to detect the real server IP.
Description
Nortel Alteon ACEdirector WebOS 9.0, with the Server Load Balancing (SLB) and Cookie-Based Persistence features enabled, allows remote attackers to determine the real IP address of a web server with a half-closed session, which causes ACEdirector to send packets from the server without changing the address to the virtual IP address.
