Lack of data validation In cpp-httplib

Description

cpp-httplib version v0.17.3 through v0.18.3 fails to filter CRLF characters ("\r\n") when those are prefixed with a null byte. This enables attackers to exploit CRLF injection that could further lead to HTTP Response Splitting, XSS, and more.

Mitigation

Update Impact

Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
