ESAPI Logger throwing org.owasp.esapi.errors.ConfigurationException: SecurityConfiguration for HttpU

Time:12-18

Using the below code in my application for generating an excel file as a attachment to the API Response header.

App Code:

ESAPI.httpUtilities().setHeader(response,"Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename="   fileName   "");

After changing to ESAPI 2.2.3.1 and excluding log4J due to the vulnerability issues and added the below lines in ESAPI.Properties ESAPI.Logger=org.owasp.esapi.logging.slf4j.Slf4JLogFactory Logger.UserInfo=false Logger.ClientInfo=false i'm getting below error in my app. I have the same ESAPI.properties with ESAPI version 2.0.1 which is working fine for the above app code. Error Message:

CodePudding user response:

I think you have missed a property in your esapi.properties file in your project which is required in the latest dependency of org.owasp.esapi 2.2.3.1 library/jar Once you update the esapi.properties file to include the missing entry

HttpUtilities.MaxHeaderNameSize=256

Which I have noticed in this link. It might workout as expected.

Here is the link which has the difference between the files
