Description Arun Babu Neelicattu 2014-05-28 11:18:14 UTC

It was found that the code used to parse the request content length header did not check for overflow in the result. This exposed a request smuggling vulnerability when Tomcat was located behind a reverse proxy that correctly processed the content length header.
