Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a Slowloris-style Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack affecting the Summer Pearl Group Vacation Rental Management Platform versions prior to 1.0.2. An attacker opens and maintains many slow or partially-completed HTTP connections to the server, which exhausts the server's connection pool and worker threads. This prevents legitimate users and API requests from accessing the service. [1]
