Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference vulnerability in Apache Syncope Console. An administrator with adequate entitlements to create or edit Keymaster parameters via Console can construct malicious XML text to launch an XXE attack, thereby causing sensitive data leakage occurs.
This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0 through 3.0.15, from 4.0 through 4.0.3.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.0.16 / 4.0.4, which fix this issue.
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.
