CVE-2026-91858Network attack vectorHinoki check available

File disclosure via unrestricted external entity resolution

Published Oct 19, 2026 · Updated Oct 19, 2026

XXE in Apache Camel FopProducer allows remote attackers to read local files and trigger requests via crafted XSL-FO input. FopProducer enables only FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING on its TransformerFactory, leaving external DTDs and entities unrestricted when an alternative implementation such as Saxon-HE performs the identity transform. Exploitation requires untrusted XSL-FO to reach a FOP producer with that alternative factory selected; default JDK-transformer deployments are unaffected, and file access is bounded by Camel process permissions.
