Title
HAPI FHIR: XXE in XsltUtilities.saxonTransform via unhardened Saxon TransformerFactory
Summary
HAPI FHIR is a complete implementation of the HL7 FHIR standard for healthcare interoperability in Java. Prior to 6.9.10, org.hl7.fhir.utilities.XsltUtilities saxonTransform(...) overloads instantiated a bare net.sf.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl() without ACCESS_EXTERNAL_DTD or ACCESS_EXTERNAL_STYLESHEET restrictions, allowing an attacker who controls or can tamper with transformed XML to trigger XML External Entity injection for local file disclosure and blind XXE or SSRF to arbitrary URLs reachable from the host. This issue is fixed in version 6.9.10.

CVE-2026-54640 (GCVE-0-2026-54640)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-10-13 16:02 – Updated: 2026-10-13 20:22

Title
OpenRemote: XXE in KNXProtocol.startAssetImport() allows arbitrary file read via unprotected XMLInputFactory
Summary
OpenRemote is an open-source internet-of-things platform. Prior to 1.24.2, the KNXProtocol.startAssetImport method in agent/src/main/java/org/openremote/agent/protocol/knx/KNXProtocol.java processes 0.xml from an authenticated user's uploaded ETS project ZIP with Saxon TransformerFactoryImpl and XMLInputFactory parsers that permit external entity resolution. This incomplete remediation of CVE-2026-40882 leaves the KNX handler unprotected while the parallel Velbus handler is hardened, allowing a regular realm user to read files accessible to the JVM process or cause server-side requests. This issue is fixed in version 1.24.2.

CVE-2026-54366 (GCVE-0-2026-54366)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-30 12:25 – Updated: 2026-08-14 16:50

Title
CentreStack < 17.4 XXE via SharePoint Storage Configuration
Summary
CentreStack before 17.4 contains an XML external entity (XXE) injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to exfiltrate arbitrary files by supplying a malicious URL to the SharePoint storage configuration handler. Attackers can send a crafted request to the unauthenticated StorageConfig endpoint causing the server to fetch and parse attacker-controlled XML containing external DTD references, resulting in out-of-band file exfiltration of sensitive files such as Web.config, which may contain database credentials and cryptographic key material.

Title
veraPDF-validatio: Use of Default `DocumentBuilderFactory` leads to XXE When Processing Untrusted PDFs
Summary
veraPDF validation model is an implementation of the veraPDF validation model. From 1.25.73 until 1.30.2 and 1.31.71, veraPDF-validation contains an XML External Entity vulnerability in PDFAValidator.validate(...) and GFPDAcroForm.getdynamicRender(), where default DocumentBuilderFactory parsing of rich-text annotation or form-field values and XFA configurations in untrusted PDFs can allow local file disclosure and outbound network requests. This issue is fixed in versions 1.30.2 and 1.31.71.

Title
veraPDF Validation XXE via XFA
Summary
veraPDF validation provides PDF/A and PDF/UA validation, feature reporting, and metadata repair. From 1.17.35 until 1.30.2 and 1.31.71, veraPDF-validation contains an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in validation-model/src/main/java/org/verapdf/gf/model/impl/pd/GFPDAcroForm.java in the getdynamicRender() method, where a crafted PDF containing a malicious XFA stream can cause external entity expansion during PDF/UA-1 validation and allow local file disclosure or outbound server-side requests. This issue is fixed in versions 1.30.2 and 1.31.71.

Title
Apache CXF: XML External Entity (XXE) Injection in W3CMultiSchemaFactory and EndpointReferenceUtils
Summary
Apache CXF's EndpointReferenceUtils and W3CMultiSchemaFactory classes construct a SAXParserFactory without the necessary JAXP hardening configurations, enabling out-of-band (OOB) external entity resolution. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.2 or 4.1.7 or 3.6.12, which fix this issue.

CVE-2026-48981 (GCVE-0-2026-48981)

Title
pam_usb: xmlReadFile flags=0 permits XXE network entity fetching in conf.c
Summary
pam_usb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. In versions prior to 0.9.2, pam_usb calls xmlReadFile() with flags=0 when loading the configuration file, allowing libxml2 to process external entity references (XXE), potentially making outbound network connections or local file reads at XML parse time from the context of the authenticating process. The vulnerability requires the configuration file to contain crafted XML entity references. Since pam_usb.conf is root-owned, direct exploitation requires prior write access to the config, but the defence-in-depth impact is significant given that pam_usb.so runs in setuid contexts (sudo, su). This issue has been fixed in version 0.9.2.

Mitigation
Implementation System Configuration

Many XML parsers and validators can be configured to disable external entity expansion.

CAPEC-221: Data Serialization External Entities Blowup

This attack takes advantage of the entity replacement property of certain data serialization languages (e.g., XML, YAML, etc.) where the value of the replacement is a URI. A well-crafted file could have the entity refer to a URI that consumes a large amount of resources to create a denial of service condition. This can cause the system to either freeze, crash, or execute arbitrary code depending on the URI.
