Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2021-01-05 13:16:18 UTC 
Affected versions of Node.js allow two copies of a header field in a http request. For example, two Transfer-Encoding header fields. In this case Node.js identifies the first header field and ignores the second. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling.
