CVE-2015-0250

Vulnerabilidad de entidad externa XML (XXE) en los gráficos vectoriales redimensionables en las clases de conversión (1) PNG y (2) JPG en Apache Batik 1.x anterior a 1.8 permite a atacantes remotos leer ficheros arbitrarios o causar una denegación de servicio a través de un fichero de gráficos vectoriales redimensionables manipulado.

It was found that batik was vulnerable to XML External Entity attacks when parsing SVG files. A remote attacker able to send malicious SVG content to the affected server could use this flaw to read files accessible to the user running the application server, and potentially perform other more advanced XXE attacks.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Data Center Expert. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the exportSvg method. Due to the improper restriction of XML External Entity (XXE) references, a crafted document specifying a URI causes the XML parser to access the URI and embed the contents back into the XML document for further processing. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose information in the context of root.
