Overview

org.apache.commons:commons-configuration2 is a group of tools to assist in the reading of configuration/preferences files in various formats.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds Write due to the improper handling of certain configurations in the AbstractListDelimiterHandler.flattenIterator method. An attacker can trigger a stack overflow by submitting a crafted configuration file or input, leading to a denial of service condition.
