CVE-2024-14029

tornadoweb tornado — Tornado before 6.4.1 HTTP Request Smuggling via Transfer-Encoding

Description · from the CVE record

Tornado before 6.4.1 ignores duplicate Transfer-Encoding: chunked headers, treating requests as having no message body and parsing the chunked body as a subsequent request. Attackers can exploit this inconsistency when Tornado is deployed behind proxies to perform HTTP request smuggling, enabling access control bypass, cache poisoning, or connection desynchronization.
