Unspecified vulnerability in the lightweight HTTP server implementation in Java SE Development Kit (JDK) and Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 Update 12 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (probably resource consumption) for a JAX-WS service endpoint via a connection without any data, which triggers a file descriptor "leak."

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2009-1101 is a denial-of-service issue in old Java 6 JDK/JRE lightweight HTTP server behavior. A vulnerable JAX-WS endpoint could exhaust file descriptors after a connection sends no data. This threatens service availability, not confidentiality or integrity, based on the provided sources. Exposure is most likely where legacy Java 6 Update 12 or earlier runs JAX-WS endpoints using the JDK lightweight HTTP server, especially if reachable by untrusted networks. The bundle does not identify specific downstream product versions beyond vendor advisories. Treat this as a legacy availability risk. It is not marked actively exploited in the supplied evidence, but exposed legacy Java services can fail under remote resource pressure and should be removed, upgraded, or isolated. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Java JDK/JRE versions using vendor-supported security updates.; Prioritize internet-facing or partner-facing JAX-WS service endpoints.; Check applicable OS or platform vendor advisories before changing packages..
