CVE-2014-0086: JBoss RichFaces Improper Input Validation vulnerability

May 17, 2022 (updated April 13, 2025)

The doFilter function in webapp/PushHandlerFilter.java in JBoss RichFaces 4.3.4, 4.3.5, and 5.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and out-of-memory error) via a large number of malformed atmosphere push requests.
