Multiple vulnerabilities in HP OpenVMS CSWS_JAVA running Tomcat

1) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU64542

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2013-4286

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a request-smuggling attack.

The vulnerability exists due to HTTP connector or AJP connector is used, does not properly handle certain inconsistent HTTP request headers.
