If you're running lighttpd 1.4.46, please upgrade to lighttp 1.4.47.

If the oversized request header is invalid, then this behavior is working as designed.

If the large request header is expected, then you can change the maximum request header size accepted by lighttpd with
server.max-request-field-size = ... The default is 8192 (8k) and you can make it smaller or as large as 65535
