| An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability allows malicious user to perform Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via crafted XML input containing malicious external entity references.
This issue affects Xerox FreeFlow Core versions up to and including 8.0.7.
Please consider upgrading to FreeFlow Core version 8.1.0 via the software available on - https://www.support.xerox.com/en-us/product/core/downloads |
| A flaw has been found in thinkgem JeeSite up to 5.15.1. Impacted is an unknown function of the file /com/jeesite/common/shiro/cas/CasOutHandler.java of the component Endpoint. Executing a manipulation can lead to xml external entity reference. The attack may be performed from remote. Attacks of this nature are highly complex. The exploitability is considered difficult. The exploit has been published and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7.0.0 through 11.7.1.6 An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in IBM InfoSphere Information Server could allow attackers to retrieve sensitive information from the server. |
| The Adobe Reader control in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 7.0 and 7.0.1 allows remote attackers to determine the existence of files via Javascript containing XML script, aka the "XML External Entity vulnerability." |
| Sulu is an open-source PHP content management system based on the Symfony framework. Starting in versions 2.5.21, 2.6.5, and 3.0.0-alpha1, an admin user can upload SVG which may load external data via XML DOM library. This can be used for insecure XML External Entity References. The problem has been patched in versions 2.6.9, 2.5.25, and 3.0.0-alpha3. As a workaround, one may patch the effect file `src/Sulu/Bundle/MediaBundle/FileInspector/SvgFileInspector.php` manually. |
| An XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability was found in Stilog Visual Planning 8. It allows an authenticated attacker to access local server files and exfiltrate data to an external server. |
| Due to missing validation of XML input, an unauthenticated attacker could send malicious input to an endpoint which leads to XML Entity Expansion attack. This causes limited impact on availability of the application. |
| DSpace open source software is a repository application which provides durable access to digital resources. Two related XML External Entity (XXE) injection possibilities impact all versions of DSpace prior to 7.6.4, 8.2, and 9.1. External entities are not disabled when parsing XML files during import of an archive (in Simple Archive Format), either from command-line (`./dspace import` command) or from the "Batch Import (Zip)" user interface feature. External entities are also not explicitly disabled when parsing XML responses from some upstream services (ArXiv, Crossref, OpenAIRE, Creative Commons) used in import from external sources via the user interface or REST API. An XXE injection in these files may result in a connection being made to an attacker's site or a local path readable by the Tomcat user, with content potentially being injected into a metadata field. In the latter case, this may result in sensitive content disclosure, including retrieving arbitrary files or configurations from the server where DSpace is running. The Simple Archive Format (SAF) importer / Batch Import (Zip) is only usable by site administrators (from user interface / REST API) or system administrators (from command-line). Therefore, to exploit this vulnerability, the malicious payload would have to be provided by an attacker and trusted by an administrator, who would trigger the import. The fix is included in DSpace 7.6.4, 8.2, and 9.1. Please upgrade to one of these versions. For those who cannot upgrade immediately, it is possible to manually patch the DSpace backend. One may also apply some best practices, though the protection provided is not as complete as upgrading. Administrators must carefully inspect any SAF archives (they did not construct themselves) before importing. As necessary, affected external services can be disabled to mitigate the ability for payloads to be delivered via external service APIs. |
| unstructured v.0.14.2 and before is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) via the XMLParser. |
| Akamai CloudTest before 60 2025.06.02 (12988) allows file inclusion via XML External Entity (XXE) injection. |
| Improper restriction of XML external entity references vulnerability exists in FitNesse all releases, which allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, alter data, or cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. |
| Sangfor Behavior Management System (also referred to as DC Management System in Chinese-language documentation) contains an XML external entity (XXE) injection vulnerability in the /src/sangforindex endpoint. A remote unauthenticated attacker can submit crafted XML data containing external entity definitions, leading to potential disclosure of internal files, server-side request forgery (SSRF), or other impacts depending on parser behavior. The vulnerability is due to improper configuration of the XML parser, which allows resolution of external entities without restriction. This product is now integrated into their IAM (Internet Access Management) platform and an affected version range is undefined. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2023-09-06 UTC. |
| When the Kiuwan Local Analyzer uploads the scan results to the Kiuwan SAST web
application (either on-premises or cloud/SaaS solution), the transmitted data
consists of a ZIP archive containing several files, some of them in the
XML file format. During Kiuwan's server-side processing of these XML
files, it resolves external XML entities, resulting in a XML external
entity injection attack. An attacker with privileges to scan
source code within the "Code Security" module is able to extract any
files of the operating system with the rights of the application server
user and is potentially able to gain sensitive files, such as
configuration and passwords. Furthermore, this vulnerability also allows
an attacker to initiate connections to internal systems, e.g. for port
scans or accessing other internal functions / applications such as the
Wildfly admin console of Kiuwan.
This issue affects Kiuwan SAST: <master.1808.p685.q13371 |
| RSA Authentication Manager before 8.7 SP2 Patch 1 allows XML External Entity (XXE) attacks via a license file, resulting in attacker-controlled files being stored on the product's server. Data exfiltration cannot occur. |
| CWE-611: Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability exists that could
cause information disclosure, impacts workstation integrity and potential remote code execution on the
compromised computer, when specific crafted XML file is imported in the Web Designer configuration tool. |
| CWE-611 Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference in the getDocumentBuilder() method of WebDav servlet in Peergos. This issue affects Peergos through version 1.1.0. |
| RAIL documents are an XML-based format invented by Guardrails AI to enforce formatting checks on LLM outputs. Guardrails users that consume RAIL documents from external sources are vulnerable to XXE, which may cause leakage of internal file data via the SYSTEM entity. |
| An XML External Entity (XXE) injection vulnerability exists in ETQ Reliance on the CG (legacy) platform within the `/resources/sessions/sso` endpoint. The SAML authentication handler processes XML input without disabling external entity resolution, allowing crafted SAML responses to invoke external entity references. This could enable attackers to retrieve sensitive files or perform server-side request forgery (SSRF). The issue was addressed by disabling external entity processing for the affected XML parser in versions SE.2025.1 and 2025.1.2. |
| Overview
XML documents optionally contain a Document Type Definition (DTD), which, among other features, enables the definition of XML entities. It is possible to define an entity by providing a substitution string in the form of a URI. Once the content of the URI is read, it is fed back into the application that is processing the XML. This application may echo back the data (e.g. in an error message), thereby exposing the file contents. (CWE-611)
Description
Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.2, including 9.3.x and 8.3.x, do not correctly protect Data Access XMLParserFactoryProducer against out-of-band XML External Entity Reference.
Impact
By submitting an XML file that defines an external entity with a file:// URI, an attacker can cause the processing application to read the contents of a local file. Using URIs with other schemes such as http://, the attacker can force the application to make outgoing requests to servers that the attacker cannot reach directly, which can be used to bypass firewall restrictions or hide the source of attacks such as port scanning. |
| Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability in Jalios JPlatform allows XML Injection.This issue affects all versions of JPlatform 10 before 10.0.8 (SP8). |
