CVE-2022-27873

Information disclosure via SVG external entity resolution

Published Jul 29, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

XXE in Autodesk Fusion 360 2.0.12887 and earlier allows attackers to issue arbitrary HTTP requests by importing a malicious SVG file. The Insert SVG procedure passes attacker-controlled external entity references to the document parser, which resolves their URLs over HTTP. A victim must import the file; the resulting requests can reveal the device's public IP address and other data accessible through the parser.
