The vulnerability stems from how CXF handles unexpected text/html content in SOAP responses. The commit 6dd839a modifies StaxInInterceptor.java to add size limits when reading HTML error messages. The original implementation used IOUtils.toString() without sufficient constraints, allowing attackers to trigger memory exhaustion via large payloads. The fix introduces a controlled read loop with a 64KB limit, confirming the vulnerability existed in the unconstrained input handling of this function.
