Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to versions 4.1.136.Final and 4.2.16.Final, Netty's HTTP/2-to-HTTP/1.x translation layer (Http2StreamFrameToHttpObjectCodec and InboundHttp2ToHttpAdapter) fails to deduplicate or validate Host headers when an HTTP/2 client supplies both the :authority pseudo-header and a literal host header in a single HEADERS frame. The translator maps :authority to Host and separately copies the literal host header, producing an HttpRequest object containing two Host headers with attacker-controlled differing values. This issue has been fixed in versions 4.1.136.Final and 4.2.16.Final.
