CVE-2024-2374
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
The XML parsers within multiple WSO2 products accept user-supplied XML data without properly configuring to prevent the resolution of external entities. This omission allows malicious actors to craft XML payloads that exploit the parser's behavior, leading to the inclusion of external resources. By leveraging this vulnerability, an attacker can read confidential files from the file system and access limited HTTP resources reachable by the product. Additionally, the vulnerability can be exploited to perform denial of service attacks by exhausting server resources through recursive entity expansion or fetching large external resources.

Esta omisión permite a actores maliciosos crear cargas útiles XML que explotan el comportamiento del analizador, lo que lleva a la inclusión de recursos externos.\n\nAl aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad, un atacante puede leer archivos confidenciales del sistema de archivos y acceder a recursos HTTP limitados accesibles por el producto. Además, la vulnerabilidad puede ser explotada para realizar ataques de denegación de servicio agotando los recursos del servidor mediante la expansión recursiva de entidades o la obtención de grandes recursos externos."
