Gunicorn < 19.5.0 HTTP Response Splitting

high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113024

Synopsis

Gunicorn < 19.5.0 HTTP Response Splitting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the version of Gunicorn installed on the remote host is prior to 19.5.0. It is, therefore, affected by a HTTP response splitting vulnerability in the 'process_headers' function. Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Gunicorn version 19.5.0 or later.
