Pound is a reverse proxy, load balancer and HTTPS front-end. It allows
|
|
to distribute the load on several web servers and offers a SSL wrapper
|
|
for web servers that do not support SSL directly.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Pound fails to handle HTTP requests with conflicting "Content-Length"
|
|
and "Transfer-Encoding" headers correctly.
|
|

|
<impact type="low">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending HTTP requests
|
|
with specially crafted "Content-Length" and "Transfer-Encoding" headers
|
|
to bypass certain security restrictions or to poison the web proxy
|
|
cache.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
