Official description

SAP Integration Suite does not sufficiently validate XML documents accepted from untrusted sources in certain internal components. An attacker with low privileges could submit specially crafted XML payloads containing malicious external entity declarations. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to read sensitive file contents from the server and expose them through monitoring or logging output, resulting in a high impact on confidentiality. It could also lead to resource exhaustion, causing a low impact on availability. There is no impact on integrity.

The underlying weakness: Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference

The product processes an XML document that can contain XML entities with URIs that resolve to documents outside of the intended sphere of control, causing the product to embed incorrect documents into its output.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

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