SymphonyDE 7.2.0.2 doesn't work with axis2 1.6.2 version of Axis2

We need to upgarde axis2 used by SymphonyDE 7.2.0.2 to remidiate our internal security finding related to older version of axis2 (axis2-0.93.jar) used by SymphonyDE 7.2.0.2.

I tested our code with publicly available version of Axis2 ( I tried 0.9, 1.0, 1.41 and 1.6.2) and code only works with axis2 that comes with IBM symphoney installation.

If we use ego.jar and axis2-0.93.jar from below symphony instllation directory then our code works ( /auto/opt_symphonyDE/DE7.2.0.2/ego_sdk/3.6/linux-x86_64/lib). If we use any publicly available version of Axis2 then code doesn't work.

    .Mark this RFE request status as the reported issues had been analyzed and confirmed Symphony is not vulnerable to the issues. Ashwini please feel free to open new ticket or request if there are any other issues.

    Analysis of the CVEs reported regarding Asix2 0.93:

    - CVE-2010-1632:
    Problem: Axis2 (1.5.2 and older version) does not properly reject DTDs in SOAP messages, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, send HTTP requests to intranet servers, or cause a denial of service (CPU and memory consumption) via a crafted DTD.
    Symphony analysis: After EGO SDK (i.e. ego.jar)is created, there is no way to assemble a SOAP messages including a DTD into EGO SDK. Symphony WSDL Server doesn't use Axis2.
    Conclusion: This vulnerability does not apply to Symphony.

    - CVE-2012-5785:
    Problem: Axis2 (1.6.2 and older version) does not verify that the server host name matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
    Symphony analysis: Symphony uses Axis2 only in EGO WSDL client. This CVE impacts the server side only. And Symphony WSDL Server does not use Axis 2, instead the server is implemented by language C based on OpenSSL.
    Conclusion: This vulnerability does not apply to Symphony.
