Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for axis.

CVE-2023-51441[0]:
| ** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** Improper Input Validation
| vulnerability in Apache Axis allowed users with access to the admin
| service to perform possible SSRF This issue affects Apache Axis:
| through 1.3.  As Axis 1 has been EOL we recommend you migrate to a
| different SOAP engine, such as Apache Axis 2/Java. Alternatively you
| could use a build of Axis with the patch from
| https://github.com/apache/axis-
| axis1-java/commit/685c309febc64aa393b2d64a05f90e7eb9f73e06  applied.
| The Apache Axis project does not expect to create an Axis 1.x
| release  fixing this problem, though contributors that would like to
| work towards  this are welcome.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
