The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons HttpClient does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.


2) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-29425)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error within the FileNameUtils.normalize method when processing directory traversal sequences, such as "//../foo", or "\..foo". A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and verify files availability in the parent folder.


3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26048)

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 processing multipart requests in request.getParameter(). A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-5262)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
