Description
Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Request/Response Splitting') vulnerability in ninenines cowlib allows HTTP response splitting via non-VCHAR bytes in structured-fields string values.
cow_http_struct_hd:escape_string/2 in cowlib only escapes \ and ", passing all other bytes through verbatim. This creates an encoder/decoder asymmetry: the matching parser accepts only printable ASCII (0x20–0x7E, excluding " and \), but the encoder emits any byte including CR and LF. An application that builds a structured HTTP header via cow_http_struct_hd:item/1 (or a higher-level wrapper such as cow_http_hd:wt_protocol/1) from attacker-controlled input can have \r\n injected into the serialized header value. Once on the wire, the injected CRLF terminates the current header and any following bytes are interpreted as a new header, enabling HTTP response splitting.
This issue affects cowlib from 2.9.0.

Title: cowlib de ninenines, Description: La vulnerabilidad de Neutralización Incorrecta de Secuencias CRLF en Encabezados HTTP ('División de Solicitud/Respuesta HTTP') en ninenines cowlib permite la división de respuesta HTTP a través de bytes no VCHAR en valores de cadena de campos estructurados.
cow_http_struct_hd:escape_string/2 en cowlib solo escapa \ y ", pasando todos los demás bytes textualmente. Esto crea una asimetría de codificador/decodificador: el analizador coincidente acepta solo ASCII imprimible (0x20-0x7E, excluyendo " y \), pero el codificador emite cualquier byte, incluidos CR y LF. Una aplicación que construye un encabezado HTTP estructurado a través de cow_http_struct_hd:item/1 (o un envoltorio de nivel superior como cow_http_hd:wt_protocol/1) desde una entrada controlada por el atacante puede tener \r\n inyectado en el valor del encabezado serializado. Una vez en la red, el CRLF inyectado termina el encabezado actual y cualquier byte siguiente se interpreta como un nuevo encabezado, lo que permite la división de respuesta HTTP.
Este problema afecta a cowlib desde la versión 2.9.0.
