Journyx - XML External Entities Injection (XXE)

id: CVE-2024-6893

info:
  name: Journyx - XML External Entities Injection (XXE)
  author: s4e-io
  severity: high
  description: |
    The "soap_cgi.pyc" API handler allows the XML body of SOAP requests to contain references to external entities. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to read local files, perform server-side request forgery, and overwhelm the web server resources.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can exploit XXE to read local files, perform SSRF attacks, and cause denial of service by overwhelming server resources.
  remediation: |
    Update Journyx to version 11.5.5 or later to address the XXE vulnerability.
