Hi,

It looks like responseString obtained from req is forgeable and this may
conceivably lead to a vulnerability down the line, it seems, when
responseString is output with a call to out.print(responseString).

please explain in what way the responseString is "forgeable". Yes, it does
include all the original request headers. That's the point of a TRACE request.
out.print() will write the *body* of the response, if that's what worries you.

Bye,
