Common Weakness Enumeration
- CWE-776 - Improper Restriction of Recursive Entity References in DTDs ('XML Entity Expansion')The software uses XML documents and allows their structure to be defined with a Document Type Definition (DTD), but it does not properly control the number of recursive definitions of entities.
- CWE-611 - Improper Restriction of XML External Entity ReferenceThe software 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.
