Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
YaCy Search Server versions prior to 1.942
Description
An XML external entity injection issue exists in the SVG, FreeMind, and OpenSearch parsers because they fail to disable external entity resolution. This allows attackers to publish malicious documents containing DOCTYPE declarations with SYSTEM entities pointing to local files, which enables the crawler to exfiltrate the contents of those files into the searchable index.
Recommendations
Update YaCy Search Server to version 1.942 or later.
