A flaw was found in the Apache Xerces Java (XercesJ) XML parser when handling specially crafted XML document payloads. This issue causes the XercesJ XML parser to wait in an infinite loop, which may consume system resources for a prolonged duration, leading to a denial of service condition.
A flaw was found in the Apache Log4j logging library 2.x. when the logging configuration uses a non-default Pattern Layout with a Context Lookup. Attackers with control over Thread Context Map (MDC) input data can craft malicious input data that contains a recursive lookup and can cause Denial of Service.
Impact
Netty currently just skips control chars when these are present at the beginning / end of the header name. We should better fail fast as these are not allowed by the spec and could lead to HTTP request smuggling.
Failing to do the validation might cause netty to "sanitize" header names before it forward these to another remote system when used as proxy. This remote system can't see the invalid usage anymore and so not do the validation itself.

OWASP AntiSamy before 1.6.4 allows XSS via HTML attributes when using the HTML output serializer (XHTML is not affected). This was demonstrated by a javascript: URL with : as the replacement for the : character.
A flaw was found in apache-commons-compress. When reading a specially crafted 7Z archive, the construction of the list of codecs that decompress an entry can result in an infinite loop. This flaw allows the mounting of a denial of service attack against services that use Compress' SevenZ package. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A flaw was found in apache-commons-compress. When reading a specially crafted 7Z archive, Compress can allocate large amounts of memory that leads to an out-of-memory error for very small inputs. This flaw allows the mounting of a denial of service attack against services that use Compress' SevenZ package. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A flaw was found in apache-commons-compress. When reading a specially crafted ZIP archive, Compress can allocate large amounts of memory that leads to an out-of-memory error for small inputs. This flaw allows the mounting of a denial of service attack against services that use Compress' zip package. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A flaw was found in apache-commons-compress. When reading a specially crafted TAR archive, Compress can allocate large amounts of memory that leads to an out-of-memory error for small inputs. This flaw allows the mounting of a denial of service attack against services that use Compress' TAR package. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
In Apache Commons IO before 2.7, When invoking the method FileNameUtils.normalize with an improper input string, like "//../foo", or "\\..\foo", the result would be the same value, thus possibly providing access to files in the parent directory, but not further above (thus "limited" path traversal), if the calling code would use the result to construct a path value.

A flaw was found in velocity. An attacker, able to modify Velocity templates, may execute arbitrary Java code or run arbitrary system commands with the same privileges as the account running the Servlet container. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
It was possible to execute a ReDoS-type attack inside CKEditor 4 before 4.16 by persuading a victim to paste crafted URL-like text into the editor, and then press Enter or Space (in the Autolink plugin).
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Color Dialog plugin for CKEditor 4.15.0 allows remote attackers to run arbitrary web script after persuading a user to copy and paste crafted HTML code into one of editor inputs.
A vulnerability was found in Hibernate-Validator. The SafeHtml validator annotation fails to properly sanitize payloads consisting of potentially malicious code in HTML comments and instructions. This vulnerability can result in an XSS attack.
