Exploitation Probability (EPSS)

Elevated risk
0.90%

56th percentile - higher than 56% of all known CVEs

Summary

Tinyproxy through 1.11.3 is vulnerable to HTTP request parsing desynchronization due to a case-sensitive comparison of the Transfer-Encoding header in src/reqs.c. The is_chunked_transfer function uses strcmp to compare the header value against "chunked", even though RFC 7230 specifies that transfer-coding names are case-insensitive.

Risk Assessment

Risk of HTTP request desynchronization, which may lead to request smuggling or other traffic manipulation attacks.

Recommendation

Update Tinyproxy to a version newer than 1.11.3 or apply a patch.
