Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2020-06-26 13:48:34 UTC

Geronimo 2.2.1 and earlier computes hash values for form parameters without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by sending many crafted parameters. NOTE: this might overlap CVE-2011-4461.

Comment 8 Summer Long 2020-06-30 01:38:58 UTC

Statement:

apache-geronimo is packaged with Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13.0's OpenDaylight (ODL). However because the flaw is moderate, Red Hat will not be releasing a fix for the ODL package at this time.
