Amazon Linux 1 (EOL) Security Advisory: ALAS-2015-578
Advisory Released Date: 2015-08-17
Advisory Updated Date: 2015-08-17
Severity:
Medium
Issue Overview:
Multiple flaws were found in the way httpd parsed HTTP requests and responses using chunked transfer encoding. A remote attacker could use these flaws to create a specially crafted request, which httpd would decode differently from an HTTP proxy software in front of it, possibly leading to HTTP request smuggling attacks.
Affected Packages:
httpd
Issue Correction:
Run yum update httpd to update your system.
