CVE-2011-5035 is an algorithmic-complexity denial-of-service vulnerability in Oracle GlassFish 2.1.1, 3.0.1, and 3.1.1, including deployments in Communications Server and Sun Java System Application Server. Affected web components compute hash values for submitted form parameters without preventing an attacker from predictably supplying large numbers of colliding parameter names. Collision-heavy parameter processing causes excessive CPU consumption. Oracle security advisories also identify affected WebLogic Server, Oracle Application Server OC4J, and Oracle iPlanet/Java System Web Server components.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module: 'modules/auxiliary/dos/http/hashcollision_dos.rb'. The module implements a denial-of-service (DoS) attack that targets web servers written in PHP or Java by exploiting hash table collision vulnerabilities (CVE-2011-5034, CVE-2011-5035, CVE-2011-4885, CVE-2011-4858). The exploit generates a large HTTP POST request with many parameters whose names are crafted to produce identical hash values, causing the server's hash table implementation to consume excessive CPU resources while parsing the request. This can render the web service unresponsive. The module allows the user to select the target type (PHP or Java), customize the request URI, and adjust payload parameters. The code is written in Ruby and is designed to be run within the Metasploit Framework. No hardcoded IP addresses or domains are present; the attack is directed at a user-specified HTTP endpoint (default '/'). The repository is operational and provides a working DoS exploit for the described vulnerability.
