Description

dom4j before 2.0.3 and 2.1.x before 2.1.3 allows external DTDs and External Entities by default, which might enable XXE attacks. However, there is popular external documentation from OWASP showing how to enable the safe, non-default behavior in any application that uses dom4j.

Solution(s)

  • suse-upgrade-dom4j
  • suse-upgrade-dom4j-demo
  • suse-upgrade-dom4j-javadoc
  • suse-upgrade-dom4j-manual

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
