GHSA-pxcx-cxq8-4mmw · Severity: high · Ecosystem: maven — Uncontrolled Resource Consumption in Apache Tomcat
Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.44, 7.x before 7.0.55, and 8.x before 8.0.9 does not properly handle cases where an HTTP response occurs before finishing the reading of an entire request body, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (thread consumption) via a series of aborted upload attempts.
Conclusion & alert: CVE-2014-0230 is rated High Risk (70.2/100): CVSS High severity, with high exploitation likelihood (EPSS 20.32%, 97th percentile). Core evidence: EPSS ranks this CVE among the most likely to be exploited in the near term. EPSS rose +17.22% over the last day, indicating growing attacker interest. Mandatory action: High exploitation likelihood—assess exposure and prioritize remediation.
Risk is dynamic; we continuously reassess and refresh what is shown on this page as upstream context changes.
EPSS lead: Daily EPSS estimates relative likelihood of exploitation; percentile ranks this CVE among scored vulnerabilities (higher = more severe relative rank).
