# Exploit Title: SearchBlox 8.6.7 Out-Of-Band XML eXternal Entity (OOB-XXE)
# Exploit Author: Ahmet GUREL, Canberk BOLAT

# Version: < = SearchBlox Version 8.6.7
# Platform: Java
# Tested on: Windows
# CVE: CVE-2018-11586

# 1. DETAILS

An XML External Entity attack is a type of attack against an
application that parses XML input. This attack occurs when XML input
containing a reference to an external entity is processed by a weakly
configured XML parser. This attack may lead to the disclosure of
confidential data, denial of service, server side request forgery,
port scanning from the perspective of the machine where the parser is
located, and other system impacts. Reference:
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/XML_External_Entity_(XXE)_Processing

# 2. PoC:

XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability in /searchblox/api/rest/status in
SearchBlox 8.6.7 allows remote unauthenticated users to read arbitrary
files or conduct server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks via a crafted
DTD in an XML request.
