A critical security update is available for Red Hat Build of Apache Camel 4.14 for Quarkus 3.27 (RHBQ 3.27.3.SP2) addressing multiple vulnerabilities. These include denial of service and information disclosure issues in Apache Neethi, remote code execution and arbitrary file write vulnerabilities in Apache Camel components (camel-google-pubsub and camel-jms) via case-variant header injection, and altered application behavior in Camel-Mail due to header injection. The update improves security and stability by mitigating these critical issues.

Apache Neethi is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack through algorithmic complexity in policy normalization. Specially crafted WS-Policy documents can trigger an exponential Cartesian cross-product expansion during the normalization process, causing unbounded memory allocation that exhausts the JVM heap. This occurs when the normalization process generates an excessive number of policy alternatives without bounds, leading to runtime memory exhaustion. Users should upgrade to 3.2.2 which limits the maximum number of normalized policy alternatives.
