Advisory Weakness Curation

JBossWS vulnerable to uncontrolled recursion DOMUtils.java in org.jboss.ws:jbossws-common does not properly handle recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted request containing an XML document with a DOCTYPE declaration and a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.
