Dominic Scheirlinck and Scott Geary of Vend reported insecure behavior in the lighttpd web server. Lighttpd assigned Proxy header values from client requests to internal HTTP_PROXY environment variables, allowing remote attackers to carry out Man in the Middle (MITM) attacks or initiate connections to arbitrary hosts.
