CVE-2021-33813

An XXE issue in SAXBuilder in JDOM through 2.0.6 allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted HTTP request.

In OpenShift Container Platform (OCP), the hive and hadoop components that comprise the OCP metering stack, ship the vulnerable version of jdom. Since the release of OCP 4.6, the metering product has been deprecated [1], hence the affected components are marked as wontfix. This may be fixed in the future.

This flaw is out of support scope for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7. Please see the following page for more information on Red Hat Enterprise Linux support scopes: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ .
