Impact

CyberELF NanoXML version 2.2.3 contains an XML External Entity injection vulnerability. The API parses XML input with external entity support enabled by default, allowing a well‑formed XML document to reference resources external to the parser. The CVE notes only information disclosure as the impact, indicating that confidential data could be read via the XML payload.

Affected Systems

The affected product is CyberELF NanoXML, version 2.2.3. No other vendors or versions are mentioned.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS base score of 5.3 places this issue at medium severity. The EPSS score is not available, so the likelihood of exploitation cannot be quantified. This vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. If the service that exposes the NanoXML API accepts untrusted input, an attacker could exploit the XXE flaw by providing crafted XML. Defenses include disabling external entity processing or otherwise sanitizing input.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Disable external XML entity support in NanoXML configuration if the application permits.
  • Validate or whitelist XML input against accepted entities before parsing.
  • Check for a vendor patch or newer release of NanoXML and apply it when available.
