CVE-2014-3584 Apache CXF: Denial of Service (DoS) via invalid JAX-RS SAML tokens
Last modified: 2018-06-29 18:02:37 EDT
It was discovered that Apache CXF JAX-RS services, via the SamlHeaderInHandler implementation, incorrectly handled invalid SAML tokens provided in authorization headers of requests. A remote attacker can trigger an infinite loop by providing specially crafted values in authorization headers leading to a Denial of Service attack.
