> {color:#000000}Purposely using incorrect HTTP headers such as content-type 
> can expose i{color}nternal Axis2 library stack traces when using JSON based 
> web services - with the intent of REST and SOAP being disabled.
> See below for an example:
> {color:#000000}<faultstring>org.apache.axiom.core.stream.StreamException: 
> com.ctc.wstx.{color}exc.WstxUnexpectedCharException: Unexpected character '{' 
> (code123) in prolog; expected '<'
> {color:#000000}* Connection #0 to host fake.com left intact {color}
> at [row,col 
> {unknown-source}
> ]: [1,1]</faultstring>
> This can be considered a "{color:#000000}Sensitive Information 
> Disclosure{color}" by penetration testers.
> Adding enableJSONOnly which will throw a HTTP 500 error when enabled and the 
> content-type is not application/json to our distributed axis2.xml with a 
> default of false solves the problem, as JSON based Axis2 web services are 
> disabled by default too.
