Those using Jettison to parse untrusted XML or JSON data may be vulnerable to Denial of Service attacks (DOS). If the parser is running on user supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash by Out of memory. This effect may support a denial of service attack.. A vulnerability was found in Jettison, where parsing an untrusted XML or JSON data may lead to a crash. If the parser is running on user-supplied input, an attacker may supply content that causes the parser to crash, causing memory exhaustion. This effect may support a denial of service attack.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
