Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling in the http_parser_execute() function in http_parser.c. An attacker can send multiple Transfer-Encoding headers for a chunked request to smuggle a response, leading to unauthorized actions or data exposure.

Note: This vulnerability is inherited via cloned code from one that was later patched in Node.js: CVE-2020-8287.
