  "bluf": "MITRE CAPEC-105 (HTTP Request Splitting) is a detailed-level attack pattern in the MITRE Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification. An adversary abuses the flexibility and discrepancies in the parsing and interpretation of HTTP Request messages by different intermediary HTTP agents (e.g., load balancer, reverse proxy, web caching proxies, application firewalls, etc.) to split a single HTTP request into multiple unauthorized and malicious HTTP requests to a back-end HTTP agent (e.g., web server). Likelihood of attack: Medium. Typical severity: High. Maps to weaknesses CWE-74, CWE-113, CWE-138, CWE-436.",
