OpenKilda is an open-source OpenFlow controller. Prior to version 1.164.0, an XML external entity (XXE) injection vulnerability was found in OpenKilda which in combination with GHSL-2025-024 allows unauthenticated attackers to exfiltrate information from the instance where the OpenKilda UI is running. This issue may lead to Information disclosure. This issue has been patched in version 1.164.0.

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.
