GHSA-F4FJ-Q6M4-CC52
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-07 21:10 – Updated: 2024-06-07 21:10Numerous components utilizing PHP's DOMDocument, SimpleXML, and xml_parse functionality are vulnerable to two types of attacks:
- XML eXternal Entity (XXE) Injection attacks. The above mentioned extensions are insecure by default, allowing external entities to be specified by adding a specific DOCTYPE element to XML documents and strings. By exploiting this vulnerability an application may be coerced to open arbitrary files and/or TCP connections.
- XML Entity Expansion (XEE) vectors, leading to Denial of Service vectors. XEE attacks occur when the XML DOCTYPE declaration includes XML entity definitions that contain either recursive or circular references; this leads to CPU and memory consumption, making Denial of Service exploits trivial to implement.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-04 18:30 – Updated: 2025-12-05 02:26Critical XXE in Apache Tika tika-core (1.13-3.2.1), tika-pdf-module (2.0.0-3.2.1) and tika-parsers (1.13-1.28.5) modules on all platforms allows an attacker to carry out XML External Entity injection via a crafted XFA file inside of a PDF.
This CVE covers the same vulnerability as in CVE-2025-54988. However, this CVE expands the scope of affected packages in two ways.
First, while the entrypoint for the vulnerability was the tika-parser-pdf-module as reported in CVE-2025-54988, the vulnerability and its fix were in tika-core. Users who upgraded the tika-parser-pdf-module but did not upgrade tika-core to >= 3.2.2 would still be vulnerable.
Second, the original report failed to mention that in the 1.x Tika releases, the PDFParser was in the "org.apache.tika:tika-parsers" module.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2020-12-02 18:28 – Updated: 2024-10-09 20:55Impact
Information Disclosure
Summary
petl is a Python library that provides functions for extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) of data.
petl before 1.68, in some configurations, allows resolution of entities in XML input.
An attacker who is able to submit XML input to an application using petl can disclose arbitrary files on the file system in the context of the user under which the application is running.
Affected Applications
Applications that:
- accept attacker-supplied XML input that is processed using petl < 1.68
- return the response generated by petl back to the attacker
- configure lxml as the underlying XML processing library used by petl
- have read privileges in filesystem files with sensitive information
Mitigation
Update to petl >= 1.68
Workarounds
- Assure there is no user/external access to the application using petl
- Assure your application is not using the function fromxml()

GHSA-F5WX-W2F9-82GH
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:07 – Updated: 2022-12-19 21:15WebSphere Deployer Plugin 1.6.1 and earlier does not configure the XML parser to prevent XML external entity (XXE) attacks. This could be exploited by a user with Job/Configure permissions to upload a specially crafted war file containing a WEB-INF/ibm-web-ext.xml which is parsed by the plugin.

Mitigation
Many XML parsers and validators can be configured to disable external entity expansion.
CAPEC-221: Data Serialization External Entities Blowup
This attack takes advantage of the entity replacement property of certain data serialization languages (e.g., XML, YAML, etc.) where the value of the replacement is a URI. A well-crafted file could have the entity refer to a URI that consumes a large amount of resources to create a denial of service condition. This can cause the system to either freeze, crash, or execute arbitrary code depending on the URI.
