Description Pedro Sampaio 2017-11-21 17:38:43 UTC
A flaw was found in Apache CXF prior to 3.2.1 and 3.1.14. It is possible to craft a message attachment header that could lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack on a CXF web service provider. Both JAX-WS and JAX-RS services are vulnerable to this attack.

Upstream patch:
