Security Advisories (1)
CVE-2015-8978 (2015-07-21)

An example attack consists of defining 10 or more XML entities, each defined as consisting of 10 of the previous entity, with the document consisting of a single instance of the largest entity, which expands to one billion copies of the first entity. The amount of computer memory used for handling an external SOAP call would likely exceed that available to the process parsing the XML.

NAME

SOAP::Transport::IO - Server side IO support for SOAP::Lite

SYNOPSIS

use SOAP::Transport::IO;

SOAP::Transport::IO::Server

  # you may specify as parameters for new():
  # -> new( in => 'in_file_name' [, out => 'out_file_name'] )
  # -> new( in => IN_HANDLE      [, out => OUT_HANDLE] )
  # -> new( in => *IN_HANDLE     [, out => *OUT_HANDLE] )
  # -> new( in => \*IN_HANDLE    [, out => \*OUT_HANDLE] )

  # -- OR --
  # any combinations
  # -> new( in => *STDIN, out => 'out_file_name' )
  # -> new( in => 'in_file_name', => \*OUT_HANDLE )

  # -- OR --
  # use in() and/or out() methods
  # -> in( *STDIN ) -> out( *STDOUT )

  # -- OR --
  # use default (when nothing specified):
  #      in => *STDIN, out => *STDOUT

  # don't forget, if you want to accept parameters from command line
  # \*HANDLER will be understood literally, so this syntax won't work 
  # and server will complain

  -> new(@ARGV)

  # specify path to My/Examples.pm here
  -> dispatch_to('/Your/Path/To/Deployed/Modules', 'Module::Name', 'Module::method') 
  -> handle
;
