CVE-2017-7465 (GCVE-0-2017-7465)

Summary
It was found that the JAXP implementation used in JBoss EAP 7.0 for XSLT processing is vulnerable to code injection. An attacker could use this flaw to cause remote code execution if they are able to provide XSLT content for parsing. Doing a transform in JAXP requires the use of a 'javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory'. If the FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING feature is set to 'true', it mitigates this vulnerability.

Title
The Action Message Format (AMF3) deserializers used by Flamingo amf-serializer by Exadel, version 2.2.0, allows external entity references (XXEs) from XML documents embedded within AMF3 messages
Summary
The Java implementation of AMF3 deserializers used by Flamingo amf-serializer by Exadel, version 2.2.0, allows external entity references (XXEs) from XML documents embedded within AMF3 messages. If the XML parsing is handled incorrectly it could potentially expose sensitive data on the server, denial of service, or server side request forgery.
Severity
No CVSS data available.

The manipulation leads to xml external entity reference. Upgrading to version 1.3.2 is able to address this issue. The identifier of the patch is ec4238349691ec66dd30b416ec6eaab02d722302. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier VDB-217549 was assigned to this vulnerability."

Title
ManageEngine Applications Manager 12 and 13 is vulnerable to privilege escalation due to improper restriction of an XML external entity
Summary
ManageEngine Applications Manager 12 and 13 before build 13690 allows an authenticated user, who is able to access /register.do page (most likely limited to administrator), to browse the filesystem and read the system files, including Applications Manager configuration, stored private keys, etc. By default Application Manager is running with administrative privileges, therefore it is possible to access every directory on the underlying operating system.
Severity
No CVSS data available.

Title
EpubCheck 4.0.1 is vulnerable to external XML entity processing attacks
Summary
EpubCheck 4.0.1 does not properly restrict resolving external entities when parsing XML in EPUB files during validation. An attacker who supplies a specially crafted EPUB file may be able to exploit this behavior to read arbitrary files, or have the victim execute arbitrary requests on his behalf, abusing the victim's trust relationship with other entities.

No CVSS data available.

Mitigation
Implementation
System Configuration
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.
