I tested the actual code in order to obtain privilege escalation using the malicious header Connection, both in capitalized version, and lowercase, but I wasn't able to exploit it.

The issue the actual implementation is suffering is the inability of doing a proper HTTP upgrade, this means it's a functional bug and not a further CVE, nor an opening of the previous one.
