Response Smuggling- Pwning HTTP-1.1 Connections

Instead of desynchronising requests, the attacker desynchronises the response queue: smuggled requests leave orphan responses that can be claimed to steal another user's response and session cookies. A smuggled HEAD request makes a proxy misjudge body length, concatenating or splitting later responses so headers become HTML body.
