Official description
Adobe Commerce versions 2.4.4-p2 (and earlier) and 2.4.5-p1 (and earlier) are affected by an XML Injection vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary file system read. An unauthenticated attacker can force the application to make arbitrary requests via injection of arbitrary URLs. Exploitation of this issue does not require user interaction.
Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.
The underlying weakness: XML Injection
The product does not properly neutralize special elements that are used in XML, allowing attackers to modify the syntax, content, or commands of the XML before it is processed by an end system.
Timeline
