    Summary: Apache Sling POST Servlets Denial of Service Vulnerability

    Details: The `@CopyFrom` operation in the POST servlet in the `org.apache.sling.servlets.post` bundle before 2.1.2 in Apache Sling does not prevent attempts to copy an ancestor node to a descendant node, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted HTTP request.
