Description

An issue was found in org.dom4j that may allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information via the setFeature function. This CVE is currently disputed by the maintainers.

Statement

This CVE was reported to Mitre via a third party in a discussion in their Github page and not from the maintainers of the org.dom4j package. They do not consider this a CVE on dom4j, as this may depend on how you are using setFeature methods and the underlying parser, which may be different from one scenario to another. For this reason, there is a reference in the External References section explaining that this CVE is currently being disputed. Therefore, the CVSS and Impact are 0 and None, respectively.

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
