DISCLAIMER

Apache Atlas is an effort undergoing incubation at the Apache

Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC.

 

Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further

review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision

making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other

successful ASF projects.

 

While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the

completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the

project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.

[ANNOUNCE] Apache Flex BlazeDS 4.7.3

2017-03-31 Thread Christofer Dutz
Hi all,

 

I am pleased to announce the release of Apache Flex BlazeDS 4.7.3. 

 

Apache Flex BlazeDS 4.7.3 is an update to 4.7.2 which adds a new

blazeds-spring-boot-starter module for easily setting up a BlazeDS server with

Spring Boot. 

 

It also provides Maven archetypes for easily creating new spring-boot project 
that 

make use of BlazeDS. 

 

We also did quite a lot of fine-tuning of the security default settings to make 
BlazeDS 

more secure.

 

Starting with 4.7.3 BlazeDS Deserialization of XML is disabled completely per 
default

but can easily be enabled in your services-config.xml:

 





http://{server.name}:{server.port}/{context.root}/messagebroker/amf "

  class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint"/>





true









 

Also, we now enable the ClassDeserializationValidator per default to only allow

deserialization of whitelisted classes. BlazeDS internally comes with the 
following

whitelist:

 

flex.messaging.io.amf.ASObject

flex.messaging.io.amf.SerializedObject

flex.messaging.io.ArrayCollection

flex.messaging.io.ArrayList

flex.messaging.messages.AcknowledgeMessage

flex.messaging.messages.AcknowledgeMessageExt

flex.messaging.messages.AsyncMessage

flex.messaging.messages.AsyncMessageExt

flex.messaging.messages.CommandMessage

flex.messaging.messages.CommandMessageExt

flex.messaging.messages.ErrorMessage

flex.messaging.messages.HTTPMessage

flex.messaging.messages.RemotingMessage

flex.messaging.messages.SOAPMessage

java.lang.Boolean

java.lang.Byte

java.lang.Character

java.lang.Double

java.lang.Float

java.lang.Integer

java.lang.Long

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Short

java.lang.String

java.util.ArrayList

java.util.Date

java.util.HashMap

org.w3c.dom.Document

 

If you need to deserialize any other classes, be sure to register them in your

services-config.xml:

 























 

(Beware, by manually providing a whitelist the default whitelist is disabled)

 

Known Issues

_

FLEX-34648 Memory Leak occurred in AsyncMessage when sending a lot of messages
