HTTP Request Smuggling

waitress is vulnerable HTTP request smuggling. The vulnerability exists because the library mishandled HTTP request header by not correctly parsing special whitespace characters in the Transfer-Encoding header, causing the parser to use Content-Length header instead to determine the HTTP message...

CVE-2019-16789

Affected software: Waitress (Python WSGI server) up to version 1.4.0. Vulnerability arises when a front-end proxy sends requests with Transfer-Encoding containing invalid whitespace characters; Waitress may parse such requests as chunked while the front-end uses Content-Length, enabling HTTP requ...

HTTP Request Smuggling: Invalid whitespace characters in headers in Waitress

Impact If a proxy server is used in front of waitress, an invalid request may be sent by an attacker that bypasses the front-end and is parsed differently by waitress leading to a potential for HTTP request smuggling. Content-Length: 10 Transfer-Encoding: \x0bchunked For clarity: 0x0b == vertical...

HTTP Request Smuggling

waitress is vulnerable HTTP request smuggling. The vulnerability exists because the library mishandled HTTP request header by not correctly parsing the Transfer-Encoding header, causing the parser to use Content-Length header instead to determine the HTTP message body size, ignoring the requests...

CRLF Injection

waitress is vulnerable to CRLF injection. The vulnerability exists due to the different ways in which carriage returns and line feed characters are parsed in the server and the client. This cab potentially lead to HTTP request smuggling and splitting vulnerabilities...

CVE-2019-16785

Waitress through version 1.3.1 implemented a "MAY" part of the RFC7230 which states: "Although the line terminator for the start-line and header fields is the sequence CRLF, a recipient MAY recognize a single LF as a line terminator and ignore any preceding CR." Unfortunately if a front-end serve...

HTTP Request Smuggling: Content-Length Sent Twice in Waitress

Impact Waitress would header fold a double Content-Length header and due to being unable to cast the now comma separated value to an integer would set the Content-Length to 0 internally. So a request with: Content-Length: 10 Content-Length: 10 would get transformed to: Content-Length: 10, 10 Whic...
