XStream is a Java library to serialize objects to XML and back again. In XStream before version 1.4.16, there is a vulnerability which may allow a remote attacker to occupy a thread that consumes maximum CPU time and will never return. No user is affected, who followed the recommendation to setup XStream's security framework with a whitelist limited to the minimal required types. If you rely on XStream's default blacklist of the Security Framework, you will have to use at least version 1.4.16.

Title: XStream vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in XStream.
It was discovered that XStream incorrectly handled parsing of certain
crafted XML documents. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
read arbitrary files. (CVE-2016-3674)
Zhihong Tian and Hui Lu found that XStream was vulnerable to remote code
execution. A remote attacker could run arbitrary shell commands by
manipulating the processed input stream. (CVE-2020-26217)
It was discovered that XStream was vulnerable to server-side forgery
attacks. A remote attacker could request data from internal resources
that are not publicly available only by manipulating the processed input
stream. (CVE-2020-26258)
It was discovered that XStream was vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion

## Abstract
Security assessment relies on public information about products, vulnerabilities, and weaknesses.
So far, databases in these categories have rarely been analyzed in combination.
Yet, doing so could help predict unreported vulnerabilities and identify common threat patterns.
In this paper, we propose a methodology for producing and optimizing a knowledge graph that aggregates knowledge from common threat
