Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability in DLP Endpoint for Windows prior to 11.9.100 allows a remote attacker to cause the DLP Agent to access a local service that the attacker wouldnt usually have access to via a carefully constructed XML file, which the DLP Agent doesnt parse correctly.

Weakness

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.
