The vulnerability stems from insecure XSLT processing where the TransformerFactory wasn't configured with FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING. This allowed execution of Java extension functions through XSLT stylesheets. The commit explicitly adds transformerFactory.setFeature(XMLConstants.FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING, true) to mitigate this. The PoC demonstrates exploiting this by calling Runtime.getRuntime() through Xalan extensions, which would be blocked when secure processing is enabled.
