Tomcat/JBossWeb: XML parser hijack by malicious web application

It was found that, in certain circumstances, it was possible for a malicious web application to replace the XML parsers used by JBoss Web / Apache Tomcat to process XSLTs for the default servlet, JSP documents, tag library descriptors TLDs, and tag plug-in configuration files. The injected XML...

OpenJDK: XML parsing Denial of Service (JAXP, 8017298)

A resource consumption issue was found in the way Xerces-J handled XML declarations. A remote attacker could use an XML document with a specially crafted declaration using a long pseudo-attribute name that, when parsed by an application using Xerces-J, would cause that application to use an...

Apple TV and iOS XML Parser Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Apple iOS is the latest operating system for Apple's iPhone and iPod touch devices. Apple TV is Apple's way of allowing photos, videos and music from PCs and iPods to be transmitted wirelessly to a TV in high definition. A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the processing of XML files in App...

odata4j is a new open source toolkit. An external entity injection vulnerability exists in odata4j XML, which can be exploited by attackers to obtain sensitive information...

ruby: REXML billion laughs attack via parameter entity expansion

The REXML parser in Ruby 1.9.x before 1.9.3-p550, 2.0.x before 2.0.0-p594, and 2.1.x before 2.1.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory consumption via a crafted XML document, aka an XML Entity Expansion XEE attack...

ruby: REXML billion laughs attack via parameter entity expansion

The REXML parser in Ruby 1.9.x before 1.9.3-p550, 2.0.x before 2.0.0-p594, and 2.1.x before 2.1.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory consumption via a crafted XML document, aka an XML Entity Expansion XEE attack...

libxml2: denial of service via recursive entity expansion

A denial of service flaw was found in libxml2, a library providing support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when processed by an application using libxml2, would lead to excessive CPU consumption denial of service bas...

php: xmlrpc ISO8601 date format parsing out-of-bounds read in mkgmtime()

An out of bounds read flaw was found in the way the xmlrpc extension parsed dates in the ISO 8601 format. A specially crafted XML-RPC request or response could possibly cause a PHP application to crash...

Restlet Framework 2.1.x before 2.1.7 and 2.x.x before 2.2 RC1, when using XMLRepresentation or XML serializers, allows attackers to cause a denial of service via an XML Entity Expansion XEE attack...

tomcat: information disclosure via XXE when running untrusted web applications

It was found that several application-provided XML files, such as web.xml, content.xml, .tld, .tagx, and .jspx, resolved external entities, permitting XML External Entity XXE attacks. An attacker able to deploy malicious applications to Tomcat could use this flaw to circumvent security restrictio...

XStream: remote code execution due to insecure XML deserialization

It was found that XStream could deserialize arbitrary user-supplied XML content, representing objects of any type. A remote attacker able to pass XML to XStream could use this flaw to perform a variety of attacks, including remote code execution in the context of the server running the XStream...
