Authenticated metadata disclosure via xmlexport requestContext
Published Jan 18, 2023 · Updated Apr 4, 2025
Information disclosure in OpenText Content Suite Platform 16.2.2 through 22.3 allows remote authenticated users to read request metadata. The xmlexport action includes inbound HTTP headers and CGI variables in its XML response whenever the requestContext parameter is present. Access requires a valid session and an exportable object; a related stylesheet path also exposes an NTLM hash by forcing outbound SMB authentication.
