How can I avoid org.apache.cxf.staxutils.DepthExceededStaxException in JBoss EAP 6?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

While calling a SOAP Webservice from within an EJB, the WS response contains a list with more than 50,000 elements, causing a DepthExceededStaxException as follows:

Caused by: org.apache.cxf.staxutils.DepthExceededStaxException: 
  reach the innerElementCountThreshold:50000

How can I configure CXF to allow for parsing such a huge XML response?
