Example 1
to the Android platform.Cross-User Defacement: An attacker will be able to make a single request to a vulnerable server that will cause the server to create two responses, the second of which may be misinterpreted as a response to a different request, possibly one made by another user sharing the same TCP connection with the server. This can be accomplished by convincing the user to submit the malicious request themselves, or remotely in situations where the attacker and the user share a common TCP connection to the server, such as a shared proxy server. In the best case, an attacker may leverage this ability to convince users that the application has been hacked, causing users to lose confidence in the security of the application. In the worst case, an attacker may provide specially crafted content designed to mimic the behavior of the application but redirect private information, such as account numbers and passwords, back to the attacker.

tag in this configuration, it might be possible to exercise administrative functionality by substituting GET or POST requests with HEAD requests. For HEAD requests to exercise administrative functionality, condition 3 must hold - the application must carry out commands based on verbs other than POST. Some web/application servers will accept arbitrary non-standard HTTP verbs and respond as if they were given a GET request. If that is the case, an attacker would be able to view administrative pages by using an arbitrary verb in a request.
