libxml2 2.6.32 and earlier does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion in an attribute value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document.
CWE-776
CVE-2018-10868
redhat-certification 7 does not properly restrict the number of recursive definitions of entities in XML documents, allowing an unauthenticated user to run a “Billion Laugh Attack” by replying to XMLRPC methods when getting the status of an host.
CVE-2020-6856
An XML External Entity (XEE) vulnerability exists in the JOC Cockpit component of SOS JobScheduler 1.12 and 1.13.2 allows attackers to read files from the server via an entity declaration in any of the XML documents that are used to specify the run-time settings of jobs and orders.
CVE-2020-5227
Feedgen (python feedgen) before 0.9.0 is susceptible to XML Denial of Service attacks. The *feedgen* library allows supplying XML as content for some of the available fields. This XML will be parsed and integrated into the existing XML tree. During this process, feedgen is vulnerable to XML Denial of Service Attacks (e.g. XML Bomb). This becomes a concern in particular if feedgen is used to include content from untrused sources and if XML (including XHTML) is directly included instead of providing plain tex content only. This problem has been fixed in feedgen 0.9.0 which disallows XML entity expansion and external resources.
CVE-2020-3946
InstallBuilder AutoUpdate tool and regular installers enabling built with versions earlier than 19.11 are vulnerable to Billion laughs attack (denial-of-service).
