Correction!
I used our test template for the rule when I e-mailed just now, but once it is
converted to the apache httpd.conf format, the actual rule appears in the
httpd.conf as:
RewriteRule ^/zoology/animals/reset/(\d+)$ "/auth/launchjob?Number of
Records=$1&__poolid=animal-magic" [B,PT,L,QSA]
I just looked at the mod_rewrite.c source differences from 2.4.55 to 2.4.56 and
it’s clear that the use of spaces in the query string of the mapped URL are the
cause of the 403 forbidden messages.
We can update our httpd.conf mapping code, so it won’t be a problem for us, but
it might be worth updating the mod_rewrite documentation on this?

I just completed upgrading to 2. 4. 56 from 2. 4. 55 and now we are having
problems with existing mod_rewrite directives that use parameter substitution:
An example of a mod_rewrite declaration we have is: RewriteCond
%{REQUEST_METHOD} GET [NC]

I just completed upgrading to 2.4.56 from 2.4.55 and now we are having problems
with existing mod_rewrite directives that use parameter substitution:
An example of a mod_rewrite declaration we have is:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} GET [NC]
RewriteRule ^/zoology/animals/reset/(\d+)$
"/auth/launchjob?Number_of_Records=$1&__poolid=animal-magic" [B,PT,L,QSA]
Our internal test case calls GET
https://SERVER:PORT/zoology/animals/reset/10<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/SERVER:PORT/zoology/animals/reset/10__;!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7HnxZz_PhN$>
In 2.4.55,
this works successfully and our internal service /auth/launchjob is called with
“Number_of_Records” = 10
However, after upgrading to 2.4.56,
The service now returns 403 Forbidden. Calling the mapped service directly
works okay.
In this case, the RewriteRule is not associated with mod_proxy and is used for
REST service mapping.
The rewrite flags are
(https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/flags.html<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/flags.html__;!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7Hn9W_LAw3$>):
B: Escape Backreferences
PT: Passthrough
L: Last
QSA: qsappend (query string append)
It seems to me that the changes to address CVE-2023-25690 have caused
unintended side effects?
https://downloads.apache.org/httpd/CHANGES_2.4.56<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/downloads.apache.org/httpd/CHANGES_2.4.56__;!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7HnxVfkr2d$>
*) SECURITY: CVE-2023-25690: HTTP request splitting with
mod_rewrite and mod_proxy (cve.mitre.org)
Some mod_proxy configurations on Apache HTTP Server versions
2.4.0 through 2.4.55 allow a HTTP Request Smuggling attack.
Configurations are affected when mod_proxy is enabled along with
some form of RewriteRule
or ProxyPassMatch in which a non-specific pattern matches
some portion of the user-supplied request-target (URL) data and
is then
re-inserted into the proxied request-target using variable
substitution. For example, something like:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule "^/here/(.*)" "
http://example.com:8080/elsewhere?$1";<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/example.com:8080/elsewhere?$1*22__;JQ!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7Hn6gkZ4bx$>
http://example.com:8080/elsewhere<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/example.com:8080/elsewhere__;!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7Hn2C8BrgB$>
; [P]
ProxyPassReverse /here/
http://example.com:8080/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/example.com:8080/__;!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7Hn3qX03Hd$>
http://example.com:8080/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/example.com:8080/__;!!FbCVDoc3r24SyHFW!_-zhgOd86kLhZzViw-FJz3SSzseF2CGIOuKLfYEr9r6zLbWV2E5lbUhjizmWgYNvRN_Ow1ApsB7Hn3qX03Hd$>
Request splitting/smuggling could result in bypass of access
controls in the proxy server, proxying unintended URLs to
existing origin servers, and cache poisoning.
