------------------------------------------

Hi,

ok. So what now?

1.  haven't tested with tcpmon, but in Chrome and Firefox debug console I 
clearly see:
Request 
URL:http://localhost:8080/SuiteConsoleServer/services/rest/getAgent?agent=0223938
Request Method:GET
2. I need to call the webservice from within web browser (as you can see using 
jquery), do I have an option to force GET when you say it is in fact OPTION? 
(note that I don't believe it is sending OPTION)
3. I don't have a problem with content type mapping - I was able to generate 
request header with the same cpu consuming result as above that contains:
Accept:application/json, text/javascript, */*; q=0.01
4. Yes, I am and always was able to generate the xml file, if the content type 
is e.g. application/xml. The only problem is with application/json where it 
hangs (and therefore I think it is not a problem of GET vs OPTION), because it 
is called within the same web browser with only different Accept header.

Anyway, I find it a very easy way for a potentiall attacker to deplete the cpu 
and do some kind of dos easier.

Br,
Ladislav

> I am trying to connect to my webservice using GET + JSON.
> I've added JSONMessageFormatter and JSONOMBuilder for "application/json" 
> content type.
> When I try to call the webservice using jQuery and HTTP GET with content type 
> "application/xml" I receive the response almost immediately (note that there 
> is a jQuery error raised afterwards, because Xml cannot be parsed as JSON).
> When I try to call the webservice using the same code but with content type 
> "application/json" there is no response and Tomcat uses 100% of CPU (there 
> are also some messages in log file mentioning that it should have ended).
> See my aar file and jQuery example attached. Also see my axis2.xml 
> configuration.
