The HTTP parser in all current versions of Node.js ignores spaces in the
Content-Length header, allowing input such as Content-Length: 1 2 to be
interpreted as having a value of 12. The HTTP specification does not
allow for spaces in the Content-Length value and the Node.js HTTP parser
has been brought into line on this particular difference. The security risk
of this flaw to Node.js users is considered to be VERY LOW as it is
difficult, and may be impossible, to craft an attack that makes use of this
flaw in a way that could not already be achieved by supplying an incorrect
value for Content-Length. Vulnerabilities may exist in user-code that
make incorrect assumptions about the potential accuracy of this value
compared to the actual length of the data supplied. Node.js users crafting
lower-level HTTP utilities are advised to re-check the length of any input
supplied after parsing is complete.
