    I doubt it’s possible to force Apache to accept invalid headers.
    I did some reading, the only thing I could find that allows header modification is mod_headers, but I don’t think even that will allow accepting invalid ones.

    Hi Ben,

    You are right. I tried mod_headers and it does a good job, but only on valid headers.

    For the 400 ones, the log is the last place where I get to see them, every attempt to handle them fails.

    @Sigitas had the idea of using a proxy between the Apache and the Internet, to filter traffic and intercept the invalid requests in an attempt to fix them.
    I find this very time consuming and I see it as a workaround for the real problem. Yet, I don’t see any other solution.
