| LocalS3 is an Amazon S3 mock service for testing and local development. Prior to version 1.21, the LocalS3 service's bucket creation endpoint is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) injection. When processing the CreateBucketConfiguration XML document during bucket creation, the service's XML parser is configured to resolve external entities. This allows an attacker to declare an external entity that references an internal URL, which the server will then attempt to fetch when parsing the XML. The vulnerability specifically occurs in the location constraint processing, where the XML parser resolves external entities without proper validation or restrictions. When the external entity is resolved, the server makes an HTTP request to the specified URL and includes the response content in the parsed XML document. This vulnerability can be exploited to perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks, allowing an attacker to make requests to internal services or resources that should not be accessible from external networks. The server will include the responses from these internal requests in the resulting bucket configuration, effectively leaking sensitive information. The attacker only needs to be able to send HTTP requests to the LocalS3 service to exploit this vulnerability. |
| When the XML is read from the codes in the PDF and parsed using a DocumentBuilder, the default settings of the DocumentBuilder allow for an XXE (XML External Entity) attack. Further information on this can be found on the website of the Open Worldwide Application Security Project (OWASP). An attacker could theoretically leverage this by delivering a manipulated PDF file to the target, and depending on the environment, various actions can be executed. These actions include:
* Reading files from the operating system
* Crashing the thread handling the parsing or causing it to enter an infinite loop
* Executing HTTP requests
* Loading additional DTDs or XML files
* Under certain conditions, executing OS commands |
| We found a vulnerability Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference (CWE-611) in NB-series NX-Designer. Attackers may be able to abuse this vulnerability to disclose confidential data on a computer. |
| 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. |
| A vulnerability was detected in beecue FastBee up to 2.1. Impacted is the function getRootElement of the file springboot/fastbee-server/sip-server/src/main/java/com/fastbee/sip/handler/req/ReqAbstractHandler.java of the component SIP Message Handler. The manipulation results in xml external entity reference. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. A high complexity level is associated with this attack. The exploitability is considered difficult. The project owner replied to the issue report: "Okay, we'll handle it as soon as possible." |
| 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. |

| 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. |
| The HTMLSectionSplitter class in langchain-text-splitters version 0.3.8 is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attacks due to unsafe XSLT parsing. This vulnerability arises because the class allows the use of arbitrary XSLT stylesheets, which are parsed using lxml.etree.parse() and lxml.etree.XSLT() without any hardening measures. In lxml versions up to 4.9.x, external entities are resolved by default, allowing attackers to read arbitrary local files or perform outbound HTTP(S) fetches. In lxml versions 5.0 and above, while entity expansion is disabled, the XSLT document() function can still read any URI unless XSLTAccessControl is applied. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to gain read-only access to any file the LangChain process can reach, including sensitive files such as SSH keys, environment files, source code, or cloud metadata. No authentication, special privileges, or user interaction are required, and the issue is exploitable in default deployments that enable custom XSLT. |
| XXE vulnerability in Hitachi JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Smart Device Manager on Windows.This issue affects JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Smart Device Manager: from 12-00 before 12-00-08, from 11-10 through 11-10-08, from 11-00 through 11-00-05, from 10-50 through 10-50-06. |
| Mustang before 2.16.3 allows exfiltrating files via XXE attacks. |
| Kivitendo before 3.9.2 allows XXE injection. By uploading an electronic invoice in the ZUGFeRD format, it is possible to read and exfiltrate files from the server's filesystem. |
| 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. |
| Peppol-py before 1.1.1 allows XXE attacks because of the Saxon configuration. When validating XML-based invoices, the XML parser could read files from the filesystem and expose their content to a remote host. |
| XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in Terminalfour 8.0.0001 through 8.3.18 and XML JDBC versions up to 1.0.4 allows authenticated users to submit malicious XML via unspecified features which could lead to various actions such as accessing the underlying server, remote code execution (RCE), or performing Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks. |
| 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. |
| ClassGraph before 4.8.112 was not resistant to XML eXternal Entity (XXE) attacks. |
| The XML document processed in the GMS ECM URL endpoint is vulnerable to XML external entity (XXE) injection, potentially resulting in the disclosure of sensitive information.
This issue affects GMS: 9.3.4 and earlier versions.

| Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference in various Lexmark printer drivers for Windows allows attacker to disclose sensitive information to an arbitrary URL. |
| The CycloneDX JavaScript library contains the core functionality of OWASP CycloneDX for JavaScript. In 6.7.0, XML External entity injections were possible, when running the provided XML Validator on arbitrary input. This issue was fixed in version 6.7.1. |
