Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Tinyproxy versions prior to 1.11.4
Description
Tinyproxy fails to reject requests containing multiple
Content-Length headers with differing values. The software forwards all duplicate headers to the backend but uses only the first value to determine the number of request body bytes to consume. This behavior allows remote attackers to desynchronize the proxy and backend parser state, leading to HTTP Request Smuggling. This technique enables the injection of arbitrary HTTP requests to the backend, which can result in cache poisoning, access control bypass, and request hijacking.Recommendations
Update to the version containing commit 364cdb6.
