> As the parent mentioned, it's security critical that every HTTP parser in the world - including every middleware, proxy, firewall, WAF - parses the headers in the same way. If you write a HTTP parser for a server application it's imperative you don't introduce random inconsistences with the standard (I can't believe I have to write this). No it isn't, at least not critical to all those parsers. My HTTP server couln't care less if some middle boxes that people go through are less or more strict in their HTTP parsing. This only becomes a concern when you operate something like a reverse proxy AND implement security-relevant policies in that proxy. |
