DescriptionCVE.org

tiny-http through 0.12.0 contains an HTTP request smuggling vulnerability that allows remote attackers to desynchronize request framing by sending a Transfer-Encoding header with any value, including non-chunked codings, which causes the library to unconditionally apply chunk-decoding and discard Content-Length. Attackers can exploit the discrepancy between tiny_http's improper Transfer-Encoding parsing and a correctly-implemented front-end proxy to produce two distinct interpretations of a single byte stream, enabling request smuggling, and can additionally send non-chunked bodies with non-chunked Transfer-Encoding values to cause failed body reads that tie up connections and consume worker threads without signaling errors to clients.

AnalysisAI

HTTP request smuggling in tiny-http versions through 0.12.0 allows remote attackers to desynchronize request processing between a front-end proxy and the vulnerable backend. By sending a Transfer-Encoding header with an arbitrary value, the library unconditionally switches to chunked decoding and discards the Content-Length, enabling request smuggling and connection exhaustion. Public exploit code exists, but active exploitation remains unconfirmed.
