where input validation may be bypassed. When the Apache Struts 1
Validator is used, the web application may be vulnerable even when
this function is not used explicitly.

block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
