CVE-2002-2272
Tomcat 4.0 through 4.1.12, using mod_jk 1.2.1 module on Apache 1.3 through 1.3.27, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (desynchronized communications) via an HTTP GET request with a Transfer-Encoding chunked field with invalid values.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (9.68%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
