+<overview>
+<p>
+Using a case-sensitive regular expression path in a middleware route enables an attacker to bypass that middleware
+when accessing an endpoint with a case-insensitive path.
+</p>
+</overview>
+
+<recommendation>
+<p>
+When using a regular expression as a middlware path, make sure the regular expression is
+case insensitive by adding the <code>i</code> flag.
+</p>
+</recommendation>
+
+<example>
+<p>
+The following example restricts access to paths in the <code>/admin</code> path to users logged in as
+an administrator:
+</p>
+<sample src="examples/CaseSensitiveMiddlewarePath.js" />
+<p>
+A path such as <code>/admin/users/45</code> can only be accessed by an administrator. However, the path
+<code>/ADMIN/USERS/45</code> can be accessed by anyone because the upper-case path doesn't match the case-sensitive regular expression, whereas
+Express considers it to match the path string <code>/admin/users</code>.
+</p>
+<p>
+The issue can be fixed by adding the <code>i</code> flag to the regular expression:
