Summary
Apache Tomcat did not correctly parse the HTTP transfer-encoding request header in some circumstances, leading to the possibility of request smuggling when used with a reverse proxy. Specifically, Tomcat incorrectly ignored the transfer encoding header if the client declared it would only accept an HTTP/1.0 response; - Tomcat honored the identify encoding; and - Tomcat did not ensure that, if present, the chunked encoding was the final encoding.
