DescriptionCVE.org

IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5 is affected by an HTTP request smuggling vulnerability due to improper handling of Content-Length headers.

AnalysisAI

HTTP request smuggling in IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5 can allow unauthenticated remote attackers to desynchronize request processing when the server sits behind or in front of an HTTP intermediary with mismatched Content-Length parsing, potentially leading to credential theft, cache poisoning, or request hijacking. The flaw (CWE-444) rates 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N) and requires a specific proxy-layer mismatch and concurrent traffic; no public exploit identified at time of analysis. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires WebSphere Application Server 8.5 to be deployed behind or in front of an HTTP intermediary (reverse proxy, load balancer, or CDN) whose Content-Length parsing differs from WebSphere's - request smuggling is inherently a two-party desync and cannot occur against a standalone server with no differing upstream/downstream parser. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Moderate, non-urgent priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation A patch is available per the IBM vendor advisory at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7286731; no exact fix version is provided in the input data, so consult the advisory for the specific patch level for WebSphere Application Server 8.5. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
