A vulnerability classified as critical was found in Apache Tomcat up to 9.0.30 (Application Server Software). This vulnerability affects an unknown part of the component Header Handler. The manipulation of the argument Transfer-Encoding
as part of a HTTP Request leads to a request smuggling vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-444. The product acts as an intermediary HTTP agent
(such as a proxy or firewall) in the data flow between two
entities such as a client and server, but it does not
interpret malformed HTTP requests or responses in ways that
are consistent with how the messages will be processed by
those entities that are at the ultimate destination. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
The refactoring present in Apache Tomcat 9.0.28 to 9.0.30, 8.5.48 to 8.5.50 and 7.0.98 to 7.0.99 introduced a regression. The result of the regression was that invalid Transfer-Encoding headers were incorrectly processed leading 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.
The weakness was shared 02/24/2020 (Website). The advisory is available at lists.apache.org. This vulnerability was named CVE-2019-17569 since 10/14/2019. The attack can be initiated remotely.
