h2: Duplicate Host header could facilitate request smuggling

h2 <=4.4.0 accepts request header blocks containing more than one Host header, and forwards every Host header to the consuming application. Where the consumer downgrades HTTP/2 to HTTP/1.1, the resulting request carries two Host header lines, which is a request smuggling primitive (CWE-444).

h2 allows HTTP Request Smuggling due to illegal characters in headers

HTTP/2 request splitting vulnerability allows attackers to perform request smuggling attacks by injecting CRLF characters into headers. This occurs when servers downgrade HTTP/2 requests to HTTP/1.1 without properly validating header names/values, enabling attackers to manipulate request boundaries and bypass security controls.
