+Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2018-5704: Prevent some forms of Cross Protocol Scripting
+ attacks
+
+OpenOCD can be targeted by a Cross Protocol Scripting attack from
+a web browser running malicious code, such as the following PoC:
+
+var x = new XMLHttpRequest();
+x.open("POST", "http://127.0.0.1:4444", true);
+x.send("exec xcalc\r\n");
+
+This mitigation should provide some protection from browser-based
+attacks and is based on the corresponding fix in Redis:
+
+https://github.com/antirez/redis/blob/8075572207b5aebb1385c4f233f5302544439325/src/networking.c#L1758
+
+
+Upstream-status: Under review: http://openocd.zylin.com/#/c/4335/
