CVE-2023-32635

Local file disclosure via external entity resolution

Published Jul 19, 2023 · Updated Oct 28, 2024

XXE in XBRL Data Create Application 7.0 and earlier allows local users to read arbitrary system files through a crafted XBRL file. Its XBRL-processing path permits XML external entity references to resolve local resources named in untrusted document content. A user must process the malicious XBRL file; the resulting disclosure is limited to files readable in the application's execution context.
