Summary

A vulnerability in Apache Struts before version 1.2.9 with BeanUtils 1.7 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) by submitting a multipart/form-data encoded form with a parameter name referencing the public getMultipartRequestHandler method. This provides further access to elements in the CommonsMultipartRequestHandler implementation and BeanUtils.
