CVE-2020-17527: Infoleak

First published: Thu Dec 03 2020(Updated: )

Apache Tomcat could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an issue when the HTTP request header value can be reused from the previous stream received on an HTTP/2 connection. By sending a specially-crafted HTTP request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
