Netty mishandled whitespace before the colon in HTTP headers (such as a ‘Transfer-Encoding : chunked’ line), which lead to HTTP request smuggling.

For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, this problem has been fixed in version 1:3.2.6.Final-2+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your netty packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
