Searches for the existence of WebWasher Proxy Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment There is a flaw in the remote WebWasher Proxy. The Proxy, when issued a CONNECT command for 127.0.0.1 (or localhost/loopback), will comply with the request and initiate a connection to the local machine. This bypasses any sort of firewalling as well as gives access to local applications which are only bound to the loopback. Solution: Upgrade to a version of WebWasher greater than 3.3.
