Hi,

Content spoofing, also referred to as content injection or virtual defacement, is an attack targeting a user made possible by an injection vulnerability in a web application. When an application does not properly handle user supplied data, an attacker can supply content to a web application, typically via a parameter value, that is reflected back to the user. This presents the user with a modified page under the context of the trusted domain.

#Steps To Reproduce:

1- Go to http://link.greenhouse.io 2- Add %0D%0AContent-Type%3A text%2Fhtml%0D%0A%0D%0AIt has been changed by a new one https://www.Attacker.com so go to the new one since this one . after / in link .
