Java Security Cheat Sheet — Symptom

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). Log Injection occurs when an application includes untrusted data in an application log message (e.g., an attacker can cause an additional log entry that looks like it came from a completely different user, if they can inject CRLF characters in the untrusted data). More information about this attack is available on the OWASP Log Injection page. Attribution: Adapted from OWASP Cheat Sheet Series under CC-BY-SA-4.0.
