An XML external entity vulnerability exists in ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus MSP prior to 14.2 Build 14200. A threat actor with the SDAdmin role can configure a malicious server to return a response with a malformed XML using the Reports integration API, causing an XML External Entity (XXE) attack.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
