NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-maven35-httpcomponents-client.src package and not the rh-maven35-httpcomponents-client.src package as distributed by RHEL.

Apache HttpClient versions prior to version 4.5.13 and 5.0.3 can misinterpret malformed authority component in request URIs passed to the library as java.net.URI object and pick the wrong target host for request execution.
