Oracle GlassFish Server Hash Collision Denial of Service Vulnerability. Successful exploitation could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a specially crafted form sent in a HTTP POST request. The flaw is due to an error within a hash generation function when hashing form posts and updating a hash table. This can be exploited to cause a hash collision resulting in high CPU consumption via a specially crafted form sent in a HTTP POST request.
