Summary

Apache Sling Engine before 3.0.4 contains a flaw in its query and form parameter parser. The parser accepts non-standard percent-escapes and wrong charsets and keeps processing requests after such errors, so it interprets HTTP requests differently from standard parsers (CWE-444). This inconsistent interpretation enables HTTP request smuggling.
