Advisories for Swift/Github.com/Apple/Swift-Nio package

NIOHTTP1 and projects using it for generating HTTP responses, including SwiftNIO, can be subject to a HTTP Response Injection attack. This occurs when a HTTP/1.1 server accepts user generated input from an incoming request and reflects it into a HTTP/1.1 response header in some form. A malicious user can add newlines to their input (usually in encoded form) and "inject" those newlines into the returned HTTP response. This capability allows …

Affected SwiftNIO systems are vulnerable to request smuggling attacks, in which they parse a given HTTP message differently from other network parties, potentially seeing a different number of requests than other servers. This can lead to failures of authentication, routing, and other issues. This vulnerability can be found in the bundled copy of the Node.JS HTTP parser used in the NIOHTTP1 module.
