CVE-2020-1935 - HTTP Request Smuggling - incorrect header parsing

Severity

4.8

In Apache TomEE versions 8.0.0-M1 to 8.0.1, 7.1.0 to 7.1.2 and 7.0.0-M1 to 7.0.7 and Tomcat 9.0.0.M1 to 9.0.30, 8.5.0 to 8.5.50 and 7.0.0 to 7.0.99 the HTTP header parsing code used an approach to end-of-line parsing that allowed some invalid HTTP headers to be parsed as valid. This led to a possibility of HTTP Request Smuggling if Tomcat was located behind a reverse proxy that incorrectly handled the invalid Transfer-Encoding header in a particular manner. Such a reverse proxy is considered unlikely.
