CVE-2026-15803 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Debian security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Debian:14.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rdf4j package and not the rdf4j package as distributed by Debian.
In Eclipse RDF4J, several XML parser entry points do not fully restrict XML External Entity (XXE) processing when parsing untrusted XML-based RDF data or query results, permitting DOCTYPE declarations, external entity references, and external DTD loading. This is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2018-1000644: the earlier fix did not cover all parser entry points. The issue is resolved in RDF4J 5.3.2, which rejects or disables DOCTYPE declarations, external entities, and external DTD loading by default.
