Starlette - Improper Validation of Unsafe Equivalence in Input

A flaw was found in Starlette, a lightweight ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface) framework. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP Host request header. This malformed header could cause the request.url to be incorrectly reconstructed, leading to a discrepancy with the actual requested path. Consequently, security restrictions enforced by middleware and endpoints that rely on request.url for validation could be bypassed, potentially allowing unauthorized access or actions.
