Overview

org.apache.cxf:cxf-bundle is an open source services framework. Affected versions of the package are vulnerable to Authorization Bypass. CXF does not validate a WS-Security UsernameToken received as part of the security header of a SOAP request against a WS-SP UsernameToken policy. A malicious client could send a request to the endpoint with no UsernameToken, and the UsernameToken policy requirement would still be marked as valid.
