4.3/10

Summary

A flaw was found in Hibernate Reactive. In versions prior to 3.2.1 and 4.x prior to 4.2.1, when an HTTP endpoint is exposed to perform database operations, a remote client can prematurely close the HTTP connection. This action may lead to leaking connections from the database connection pool, potentially causing a Denial-of-Service (DoS) by exhausting available database connections.
