If this InvalidPathException is then handled by the default Error Handler, the InvalidPathException message is included in the error response, revealing the full server path to the requesting system.","published":"2018-06-27T17:29:00.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T01:37:56.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"emo@eclipse.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.3,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-209"],"affected":["eclipse/jetty","oracle/retail xstore point of service"],"epss":{"score":0.04391,"percentile":0.91261,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (4.39%).
