NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-bottle package and not the python-bottle package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

redirect() in bottle.py in bottle 0.12.10 doesn't filter a "\r\n" sequence, which leads to a CRLF attack, as demonstrated by a redirect("233\r\nSet-Cookie: name=salt") call.
