✅ Remediation
Before applying the update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Also, back up your existing installation, including all applications, configuration files, databases and database settings. For details on how to apply this update, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, configure any proxy servers positioned in front of Undertow to strictly validate HTTP header terminations. Ensure that these proxies are configured to reject or normalize non-standard header block terminators, such as `\r\r\r`, before forwarding requests to Undertow. This operational control helps prevent request smuggling attacks by ensuring that only properly formed HTTP requests reach the Undertow server. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
