DescriptionGitHub Advisory

TinyWeb is a web server (HTTP, HTTPS) written in Delphi for Win32. Prior to version 2.04, TinyWeb accepts request header values and later maps them into CGI environment variables (HTTP_*). The parser did not strictly reject dangerous control characters in header lines and header values, including CR, LF, and NUL, and did not consistently defend against encoded forms such as %0d, %0a, and %00. This can enable header value confusion across parser boundaries and may create unsafe data in the CGI execution context. This issue has been patched in version 2.04.

AnalysisAI

TinyWeb versions prior to 2.04 fail to properly sanitize control characters and encoded sequences (CR, LF, NUL) in HTTP request headers, allowing attackers to inject malicious values into CGI environment variables and bypass parser validation. This network-accessible vulnerability enables header injection attacks that could lead to data corruption or denial of service without requiring authentication. No patch is currently available for affected deployments.
