[ Reason ] Fixing CVE-2023-40743: Axis allows potentially dangerous lookup mechanisms which may lead to DoS, SSRF or even RCE. [ Tests ] The fix is trivial. If the name of the JNDI service contains a certain string then do nothing. That filters out unsupported protocols effectively. [ Risks ] Axis in Debian is mainly used to build other software packages and serves no other purpose. It is very unlikely that it is used in third party applications outside of Debian but better safe than sorry. [ Checklist ] [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable Regards, Markus
