      If a GET or POST with no body is sent via HTTPS with an Expect: 100-continue header, then it is silently closed with no response. Tracing clarifies this is from HttpServerConnection.terminateRequestChannel so relates to the CVE-2020-10705 fix:

      TRACE [io.undertow.request.io] (default task-3) Exception closing read side of SSL channel: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Inbound closed before receiving peer's close_notify: possible truncation attack?

      A plain HTTP connection still gives a response.
