Timeline

2026-09-21	first spoke of it: A specially crafted WS-Policy document can pack unlimited content inside a policy assertion, which Neethi copies into memory without counting it against its size limits, exhausting the heap (denial of service). Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.2.4, which fixes this issue.	NVD

What it is to other things

affects	apache/neethi NVD
made_by	apache NVD

In words only, so not counted until a person confirms one:

made_by	`apache_software_foundation` NVD says “Apache Software Foundation”
affects	`apache_software_foundation/apache_neethi` NVD says “Apache Software Foundation · Apache Neethi”

Every value, with what each source said and its receipt
