Created by: dependabot[bot]

Bumps waitress from 1.3.0 to 1.4.0.

Changelog

Sourced from waitress's changelog.

1.4.0 (2019-12-20)

Bugfixes

- Waitress used to slam the door shut on HTTP pipelined requests without
  setting the ``Connection: close`` header as appropriate in the response. This
  is of course not very friendly. Waitress now explicitly sets the header when
  responding with an internally generated error such as 400 Bad Request or 500
  Internal Server Error to notify the remote client that it will be closing the
  connection after the response is sent.

- Waitress no longer allows any spaces to exist between the header field-name
  and the colon. While waitress did not strip the space and thereby was not
  vulnerable to any potential header field-name confusion, it should have sent
  back a 400 Bad Request. See [Pylons/waitress#273](https://github-redirect.dependabot.com/Pylons/waitress/issues/273)

Security Fixes

• Waitress implemented a "MAY" part of the RFC7230 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.5) which states:

  Although the line terminator for the start-line and header fields is
  the sequence CRLF, a recipient MAY recognize a single LF as a line
  terminator and ignore any preceding CR.

  Unfortunately if a front-end server does not parse header fields with an LF the same way as it does those with a CRLF it can lead to the front-end and the back-end server parsing the same HTTP message in two different ways. This can lead to a potential for HTTP request smuggling/splitting whereby Waitress may see two requests while the front-end server only sees a single HTTP message.

  For more information I can highly recommend the blog post by ZeddYu Lu https://blog.zeddyu.info/2019/12/08/HTTP-Smuggling-en/

• Waitress used to treat LF the same as CRLF in Transfer-Encoding: chunked requests, while the maintainer doesn't believe this could lead to a security issue, this is no longer supported and all chunks are now validated to be properly framed with CRLF as required by RFC7230.

• Waitress now validates that the Transfer-Encoding header contains only transfer codes that it is able to decode. At the moment that includes the only valid header value being chunked.

  That means that if the following header is sent:

  Transfer-Encoding: gzip, chunked

... (truncated)
