CVE-2009-2473
webdav neon: no CVSS score yet. EPSS 8.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
neon before 0.28.6, when expat is used, does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.
