Michael Pujos commented on HTTPCORE-263:
----------------------------------------

I cannot easily make a test at the moment but producing a crafted request which 
result in the following situation when entering the function should trigger it:


this.buffer     ...........|CR|LF|............ 
                                     ^
                                     |
                              this.bufferpos 
                                    pos          


Now it is probable this has gone unnoticed because http client code making 
regular http requests never put CR in requests (note sure about that, it is 
just a supposition).
Maybe it is of much higher occurence with UPnP stacks making http-like requests.
