Overview

hyper is a modern HTTP library.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling since the HTTP header parser ignores illegal contents inside the Content-Length headers.

NOTE: for an application to be vulnerable, hyper must be used as an HTTP/1 server and use an HTTP proxy upstream that ignores the Content-Length header's contents.
