CVE-2022-24766 describes an HTTP request smuggling vulnerability in mitmproxy versions 7.0.4 and below. A malicious client or server can inject additional requests or responses into an existing HTTP message body, bypassing mitmproxy's usual security checks and logging. This critical vulnerability (CVSS 9.8) allows for high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability, as smuggled requests are not subject to user-defined access controls or sanitization. While no active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion has been observed, the vulnerability is easily exploitable with low attack complexity.
