Some time ago I wrote about unsafe deserialization and DoS vulnerabilities I’ve discovered in Apache Olingo. This post describes one more issue in the library. This time, it’s a little flaw in the Olingo client which may allow sending some HTTP requests to arbitrary URLs. The issue has been fixed in the 4.7.1 release.
In case you don’t know, Apache Olingo is a Java library that implements the Open Data Protocol (OData). This protocol allows the creation and consumption of queryable and interoperable RESTful APIs in a simple way.
