Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 28, 2026
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.

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.

How this decision was reached
The engine reads each signal below and applies a fixed list of rules from top to bottom. The first rule that matches sets the recommended action – like a statement, every line is shown.

Priority Score
Attack Technique
HTTP request smuggling exploits inconsistencies in how front-end and back-end servers parse HTTP message boundaries.
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
