> There's an obvious bug/typo in src/core/transport/http/util/http_transport_utils.c in function axis2_http_transport_utils_process_accept_headers().
> First, the "Accept:" header is tokenized into <accept_field_list>.
> Then in a loop (iterating over the accept_record_list):
> 1) each field is parsed into struct axis2_http_accept_record_t
> 2) the struct should be added into a list of records list, <accept_record_list>
> However, there's a typo here and the record is added into the same original list (<accept_field_list>), not into the <accept_record_list>.
> This results in looping over and over the same list with 100% CPU load, and also memory issues (because arbitrary not necessary 0-terminated pieces of memory are being strdup'ed).
