Title: content injection in http method (CVE-2019-3462) Status in apt package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in apt source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Trusty: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Status in apt source package in Disco: In Progress Bug description: apt, starting with version 0.8.15, decodes target URLs of redirects, but does not check them for newlines, allowing MiTM attackers (or repository mirrors) to inject arbitrary headers into the result returned to the main process. If the URL embeds hashes of the supposed file, it can thus be used to disable any validation of the downloaded file, as the fake hashes will be prepended in front of the right hashes.
