Overview

org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-ws-security is a services framework that helps you build and develop services using frontend programming APIs, like JAX-WS and JAX-RS.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature. When a Supporting Token specifies a child WS-SecurityPolicy 1.1 or 1.2 policy, it does not properly ensure that an XML element is signed or encrypted, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.
