NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tomcat-javadoc package and not the tomcat-javadoc package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in java/org/apache/tomcat/util/buf/Ascii.java in Apache Tomcat before 6.0.40, 7.x before 7.0.53, and 8.x before 8.0.4, when operated behind a reverse proxy, allows remote attackers to conduct HTTP request smuggling attacks via a crafted Content-Length HTTP header.
