Vulnerability identifier: #VU81799

CSH Severity: Medium

CVSS v4 BT: 1.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45648

CWE-ID: CWE-444

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
