The code that parsed the HTTP request line permitted invalid characters. This
could be exploited, in conjunction with a proxy that also permitted the invalid
characters but with a different interpretation, to inject data into the HTTP
response. By manipulating the HTTP response the attacker could poison a
web-cache, perform an XSS attack and/or obtain sensitive information from
requests other then their own.
