Debian Linux Security Advisory 2991-1 - Martin Holst Swende discovered a flaw in the way chunked requests are handled in ModSecurity, an Apache module whose purpose is to tighten the Web application security. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass intended mod_security restrictions by using chunked transfer coding with a capitalized Chunked value in the Transfer-Encoding HTTP header, allowing to send requests containing content that should have been removed by mod_security.

CVE ID : CVE-2013-5705

Martin Holst Swende discovered a flaw in the way chunked requests are
handled in ModSecurity, an Apache module whose purpose is to tighten the
Web application security. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
bypass intended mod_security restrictions by using chunked transfer
coding with a capitalized Chunked value in the Transfer-Encoding HTTP
header, allowing to send requests containing content that should have
been removed by mod_security.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
