Thank you Cedric!

Here are the additional details I promised:
  http://blog.blindspotsecurity.com/2016/06/advisory-http-header-injection-in.html

The gist of it is that protocol injection can occur not only if an
application sets a header based on user-supplied values, but also if
the application ever tries to fetch a URL specified by an attacker
(SSRF case) OR if the application ever accesses any malicious web
server (redirection case).  URLs of the following form allow
injection into the HTTP stream:

  http://127.0.0.1%0d%0aX-injected:%20header%0d%0ax-leftover:%20:12345/foo
  http://localhost%00%0d%0ax-bar:%20:12345/foo

More details in the blog post, of course.

Best regards,
