Description: Fix for CVE-2021-33193: mod_proxy HTTP/2 validation bypass
 A crafted method sent through HTTP/2 will bypass validation and be forwarded by
 mod_proxy, which can lead to request splitting or cache poisoning.
Origin: other, https://git.centos.org/rpms/httpd/blob/c496dea5e0b6e82a9f503e973fc5d5ea93a94180/f/SOURCES/httpd-2.4.37-CVE-2021-33193.patch
