CVE-2022-30973
In Apache Tika, a regular expression in the StandardsText class, used by the StandardsExtractingContentHandler could lead to a denial of service caused by backtracking on a specially crafted file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.99%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

In Apache Tika, a regular expression in the StandardsText class, used by the StandardsExtractingContentHandler could lead to a denial of service caused by backtracking on a specially crafted file.
