Bugfixes


- Waitress used to slam the door shut on HTTP pipelined requests without
setting the ``Connection: close`` header as appropriate in the response. This
is of course not very friendly. Waitress now explicitly sets the header when
responding with an internally generated error such as 400 Bad Request or 500
Internal Server Error to notify the remote client that it will be closing the
connection after the response is sent.
- Waitress no longer allows any spaces to exist between the header field-name
and the colon. While waitress did not strip the space and thereby was not
vulnerable to any potential header field-name confusion, it should have sent
back a 400 Bad Request. See [Pylons/waitress#273](https://github-redirect.dependabot.com/Pylons/waitress/issues/273)
Security Fixes
  • Waitress implemented a "MAY" part of the RFC7230
    (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.5) which states:

    Although the line terminator for the start-line and header fields is
    the sequence CRLF, a recipient MAY recognize a single LF as a line
    terminator and ignore any preceding CR.
    

    Unfortunately if a front-end server does not parse header fields with an LF
    the same way as it does those with a CRLF it can lead to the front-end and
    the back-end server parsing the same HTTP message in two different ways. This
    can lead to a potential for HTTP request smuggling/splitting whereby Waitress
    may see two requests while the front-end server only sees a single HTTP
    message.

    For more information I can highly recommend the blog post by ZeddYu Lu
    https://blog.zeddyu.info/2019/12/08/HTTP-Smuggling-en/

  • Waitress used to treat LF the same as CRLF in Transfer-Encoding: chunked
    requests, while the maintainer doesn't believe this could lead to a security
    issue, this is no longer supported and all chunks are now validated to be
    properly framed with CRLF as required by RFC7230.

  • Waitress now validates that the Transfer-Encoding header contains only
    transfer codes that it is able to decode. At the moment that includes the
    only valid header value being chunked.

    That means that if the following header is sent:

    Transfer-Encoding: gzip, chunked
