CVE-2013-4002 – OpenJDK: XML parsing Denial of Service (JAXP, 8017298)

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2013-4002

XMLscanner.java in Apache Xerces2 Java Parser before 2.12.0, as used in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in IBM Java 5.0 before 5.0 SR16-FP3, 6 before 6 SR14, 6.0.1 before 6.0.1 SR6, and 7 before 7 SR5 as well as Oracle Java SE 7u40 and earlier, Java SE 6u60 and earlier, Java SE 5.0u51 and earlier, JRockit R28.2.8 and earlier, JRockit R27.7.6 and earlier, Java SE Embedded 7u40 and earlier, and possibly other products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via vectors related to XML attribute names. XMLscanner.java en Apache Xerces2 Java Parser, en versiones anteriores a la 2.12.0, tal y como se empleó en Java Runtime Environment (JRE) en IBM Java, en versiones 5.0 anteriores a la 5.0 SR16-FP3, 6 anteriores a la 6 SR14, 6.0.1 anteriores a la 6.0.1 SR6 y 7 anteriores a la 7 SR5, así como en Oracle Java SE 7u40 y anteriores, Java SE 6u60 y anteriores, Java SE 5.0u51 y anteriores, JRockit R28.2.8 y anteriores, JRockit R27.7.6 y anteriores, Java SE Embedded 7u40 y anteriores y, posiblemente, otros productos, permite que los atacantes remotos realicen una denegación de servicio (DoS) mediante vectores relacionados con los nombres de atributo XML. A resource consumption issue was found in the way Xerces-J handled XML declarations. A remote attacker could use an XML document with a specially crafted declaration using a long pseudo-attribute name that, when parsed by an application using Xerces-J, would cause that application to use an excessive amount of CPU. • https://github.com/tafamace/CVE-2013-4002 http://lists.apple.com/archives/security-announce/2013/Oct/msg00001.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2013-07/msg00026.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2013-07/msg00027.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2013-07/msg00028.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2013-07/msg00029.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2013-08/msg00000.html http://lists • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation •
