CVE-2014-2741: Ignite Realtime Openfire vulnerable to XMPPbomb attack
(updated )
nio/XMLLightweightParser.java in Ignite Realtime Openfire before 3.9.2 does not properly restrict the processing of compressed XML elements, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted XMPP stream, aka an “xmppbomb” attack.
