Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.java.security.RegularExpressionDenialOfService

ReDoS is a Denial of Service attack that exploits the fact that most Regular Expression implementations may reach extreme situations that cause them to work very slowly (exponentially related to input size). See the OWASP description of this attack here for more details.
