CVSS v3.1 |
| The CycloneDX core module provides a model representation of the SBOM along with utilities to assist in creating, validating, and parsing SBOMs. Starting in version 2.1.0 and prior to version 11.0.1, the XML `Validator` used by cyclonedx-core-java was not configured securely, making the library vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) injection. The fix for GHSA-683x-4444-jxh8 / CVE-2024-38374 was incomplete in that it only fixed parsing of XML BOMs, but not validation. The vulnerability has been fixed in cyclonedx-core-java version 11.0.1. As a workaround, applications can reject XML documents before handing them to cyclonedx-core-java for validation. This may be an option if incoming CycloneDX BOMs are known to be in JSON format. |
| An improper XML parsing vulnerability was reported in the FileZ client that could allow arbitrary file reads on the system if a crafted url is visited by a local user. |
| Delta Electronics EIP Builder version 1.11 is vulnerable to a File Parsing XML External Entity Processing Information Disclosure Vulnerability. |
| OpenKilda is an open-source OpenFlow controller. Prior to version 1.164.0, an XML external entity (XXE) injection vulnerability was found in OpenKilda which in combination with GHSL-2025-024 allows unauthenticated attackers to exfiltrate information from the instance where the OpenKilda UI is running. This issue may lead to Information disclosure. This issue has been patched in version 1.164.0. |
| 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. |
| OpenXRechnungToolbox through 2024-10-05-3.0.0 before 6c50e89 allows XXE because the disallow-doctype-decl feature is not enabled in visualization/VisualizerImpl.java. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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.

| XML Notepad is a Windows program that provides a simple intuitive User Interface for browsing and editing XML documents. Prior to version 2.9.0.21, XML Notepad does not disable DTD processing by default which means external entities are resolved automatically. There is a well known attack related to malicious DTD files where an attacker to craft a malicious XML file that loads a DTD that causes XML Notepad to make outbound HTTP/SMB requests, potentially leaking local file contents or capturing the victim's NTLM credentials. This issue has been patched in version 2.9.0.21. |
| Geonetwork 3.10 through 4.2.0 contains an XML external entity vulnerability in PDF rendering that allows attackers to retrieve arbitrary files from the server. Attackers can exploit the insecure XML parser by crafting a malicious XML document with external entity references to read system files through the baseURL parameter in PDF creation requests. |
| Grav CMS v1.7.x and before is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) through the SVG file upload functionality in the admin panel and File Manager plugin. |
| An issue was discovered in Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) 10.0 and 10.1. An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability exists in the Zimbra Exchange Web Services (EWS) SOAP interface due to improper handling of XML input. An authenticated attacker can submit crafted XML data that is processed by an XML parser with external entity resolution enabled. Successful exploitation may allow disclosure of sensitive local files from the server. |
| OpenEMR is a free and open source electronic health records and medical practice management application. Prior to version 8.0.0.3, an authenticated user with access to the Carecoordination module can upload a crafted CCDA document containing `<xi:include href="file:///etc/passwd" parse="text"/>` to read arbitrary files from the server. Version 8.0.0.3 patches the issue. |
| Tolgee is an open-source localization platform. Prior to 3.166.3, the XML parsers used for importing Android XML resources (.xml) and .resx files don't disable external entity processing. An authenticated user who can import translation files into a project can exploit this to read arbitrary files from the server and make server-side requests to internal services. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.166.3. |
| Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability in XMLUtils.java in Slovensko.Digital Autogram allows remote unauthenticated attacker to conduct SSRF (Server Side Request Forgery) attacks and obtain unauthorized access to local files on filesystems running the vulnerable application. Successful exploitation requires the victim to visit a specially crafted website that sends request containing a specially crafted XML document to /sign endpoint of the local HTTP server run by the application. |
| Missing XML Validation vulnerability in Apache Struts, Apache Struts.
This issue affects Apache Struts: from 2.0.0 before 2.2.1; Apache Struts: from 2.2.1 through 6.1.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.1.1, which fixes the issue. |
| Dell Storage Center - Dell Storage Manager, version(s) 20.1.20, contain(s) an Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with adjacent network access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Information disclosure and Information tampering. |
| SysAid On-Prem versions <= 23.3.40 are vulnerable to an unauthenticated XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the lshw processing functionality, allowing for administrator account takeover and file read primitives. |
| Critical XXE in Apache Tika (tika-parser-pdf-module) in Apache Tika 1.13 through and including 3.2.1 on all platforms allows an attacker to carry out XML External Entity injection via a crafted XFA file inside of a PDF. An attacker may be able to read sensitive data or trigger malicious requests to internal resources or third-party servers. Note that the tika-parser-pdf-module is used as a dependency in several Tika packages including at least: tika-parsers-standard-modules, tika-parsers-standard-package, tika-app, tika-grpc and tika-server-standard.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.2.2, which fixes this issue. |
