CWE-ID:
CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

Description
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing a whitespace before the colon in HTTP headers (e.g. "Transfer-Encoding : chunked") and a later Content-Length header. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and perform HTTP request smuggling attack.
This issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2019-16869 (SB2019092616).
