A flaw was found in the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) component of OpenJDK. An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting crafted data across the network to applications that expose JAXP interfaces, such as through a web service. Successful exploitation can result in a partial Denial of Service (DoS), reducing the availability of the application.
