Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2013-2160 is a denial-of-service issue in older Apache CXF XML handling. A remote sender can provide unusually complex XML that consumes excessive CPU and memory, potentially slowing or stopping affected services. The bundle identifies fixed CXF versions but does not provide CVSS severity or evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is most likely in Java SOAP/XML services that use the affected Apache CXF branches directly or through vendor packages. Systems are relevant only where attacker-controlled XML reaches CXF parsing paths. Treat as a targeted availability risk for legacy XML services. It is not currently supported by KEV evidence, but externally reachable CXF endpoints should be patched promptly because denial of service can affect customer-facing operations. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Apache CXF to 2.5.10, 2.6.7, 2.7.4, or later as applicable.; Use Red Hat or other vendor advisories for packaged dependency updates.; Inventory direct and transitive Apache CXF use in Java services..
