JBoss Web, as used in Red Hat JBoss Communications Platform before 5.1.3, Enterprise Web Platform before 5.1.2, Enterprise Application Platform before 5.1.2, and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via vectors related to a crafted UTF-8 and a "surrogate pair character" that is "at the boundary of an internal buffer."
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
