CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability allows for HTTP header injection in tiny-http versions up to 0.12.0, enabling attackers to inject carriage return and line feed bytes into header values due to inadequate validation. This can lead to various attacks, including response splitting, cache poisoning, and session fixation, particularly affecting systems that are tolerant of line-feed characters. Organizations using affected versions of tiny-http should prioritize remediation to mitigate potential exploitation risks.

Original NVD Description
tiny-http through 0.12.0 contains an HTTP header injection vulnerability that allows attackers to inject carriage return (0x0D) and line feed (0x0A) bytes into HTTP header values on both request and response sides due to insufficient validation in header parsing and serialization. Attackers can exploit this injection primitive to perform response splitting, cache poisoning, session fixation via Set-Cookie injection, security header override, and request smuggling against line-feed-tolerant backends.
