REDHAT-BUG-1628702

First published: Thu Sep 13 2018(Updated: )

In some circumstances Undertow can serve data from a random ByteBuffer, this is due to an incomplete fix for UNDERTOW-438. Basically if all the headers are not written out in the first write() call then the code that handles flushing the buffer will always write out the full contents of the writevBuffer buffer, which may contain data from previous requests.
