> *Description :*
> *Severity :* CVE CVSS 3: 7.5Sonatype CVSS 3: 7.5
> *Weakness :* CVE CWE: 444
> *Source :* National Vulnerability Database
> *Categories :* Data
> *Description from CVE :* Netty before 4.1.42.Final mishandles whitespace before the colon in HTTP headers , which leads to HTTP request smuggling.
> *Explanation :* Netty is vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling. The splitHeader method in HttpObjectDecoder.class does not properly handle HTTP headers containing whitespace between the header field-name and colon. An attacker can exploit this by sending such a header containing this white space and have the header end up being parsed by one endpoint and not another, due to inconsistencies in how the whitespace in the header is handled.
> *Detection :* The application is vulnerable by using this component.
> *Recommendation :* We recommend upgrading to a version of this component that is not vulnerable to this specific issue.
> *Root Cause :* apache-cassandra-3.11.4-bin.tar.gzio/netty/handler/codec/http/HttpObjectDecoder.class : [4.0.0.Beta1, 4.1.42.Final]
> *Advisories :* Project: [https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9571]
