The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in Apache HttpClient. A remote attacker can pass request URIs to the library as java.net.URI object and force the application to pick the wrong target host for request execution.
4) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-47621)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.
5) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-45688)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists in the XML.toJSONObject component. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted JSON or XML data, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service attack.
6) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5072)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to allocation of resources without limits or throttling. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47554)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when handling untrusted input passed to the org.apache.commons.io.input.XmlStreamReader class. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6119)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error when performing certificate name checks. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted X.509 certificate to the server, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
