Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express versions 7.0 through SP6 BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express versions 8.1 through SP4

Description The issue is related to how the software handles relative forwarding when used by servlets. This can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically a slowdown, by triggering "looping stack overflow errors" through unknown attack vectors.

Recommendations For versions 7.0 through SP6, update to a version that properly handles relative forwarding to prevent denial of service attacks. For versions 8.1 through SP4, update to a version that properly handles relative forwarding to prevent denial of service attacks.
