      "value": "Apache Neethi does not impose any restrictions on URIs when manually fetching remote policy references through the PolicyReference API. When an application explicitly calls the API to retrieve a policy from a remote URI, an outbound request is made for arbitrary protocols and internal IP adddresses. From 3.2.2, only http or https URIs are allowed, and link-local/multicast/any-local addresses are forbidden.\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 3.2.2, which fixes this issue."

      "value": "Apache Neethi no impone ninguna restricción en las URI al recuperar manualmente referencias de políticas remotas a través de la API PolicyReference. Cuando una aplicación llama explícitamente a la API para recuperar una política de una URI remota, se realiza una solicitud saliente para protocolos arbitrarios y direcciones IP internas. A partir de 3.2.2, solo se permiten URI HTTP o HTTPS, y las direcciones link-local/multicast/any-local están prohibidas.\n\nSe recomienda a los usuarios actualizar a la versión 3.2.2, que soluciona este problema."
