Apache Tomcat improperly handles chunk extensions in HTTP chunked transfer coding. Apache Tomcat 6.x releases before 6.0.37 and 7.x releases before 7.0.30 are affected. A remote attacker can stream chunked data containing chunk extensions to drive excessive resource consumption and deny service. The original remediation was later determined to be incomplete for related chunk-extension and trailing-header cases, which were addressed by CVE-2013-4322.

An incomplete fix for an Apache Tomcat chunked-transfer-coding parsing denial-of-service issue. Unlimited chunk extensions and trailing-header whitespace could allow a remote attacker to cause denial of service by streaming data.
An Apache Tomcat chunked-transfer-coding denial-of-service issue whose prior fix was incomplete; unbounded chunk extensions and trailing-header whitespace could permit remote denial of service via streamed data.
