Severity: moderate 

Affected versions:

- Apache TomEE (org.apache.openejb:openejb-http) 4.0.0-beta-1 through 4.7.5
- Apache TomEE (org.apache.tomee:openejb-http) 7.0.0-M1 before 10.0.0-M1
- Apache TomEE (org.apache.tomee:openejb-http) 10.0.0-M1 through 10.2.0
- Apache TomEE (org.apache.tomee:openejb-http) 11.0.0-M1

Description:

The embedded OpenEJB HTTP server does not limit the size of incoming request 
bodies or of multipart requests, and does not remove the temporary files it 
creates for multipart parts. A remote unauthenticated attacker can cause 
excessive memory or disk usage, leading to denial of service. Deployments using 
the Tomcat connectors are not affected. Users are recommended to block network 
access to the embedded HTTP server from untrusted clients, or to migrate to the 
Tomcat based TomEE distributions.
