Confirmed on Axis2
I've just done a Web Services VA of some components hosted via Axis2 and can confirm that I can use WS Amplification to DoS a third party by altering the wsa:Address within wsa:ReplyTo. Sadly I had limited options while testing so my box initiating the requests also had to be receiving them, but I can differentiate inbound vs outbound traffic and definitely see an inbound spike which without too much more effort could easily result in a DoS.
I'll see if I can do some further work later this week. Rick.mitchell (talk) 03:59, 3 December 2013 (CST)
