Overview

org.apache.xmlrpc:xmlrpc is a Java implementation of XML-RPC, a popular protocol that uses XML over HTTP to implement remote procedure calls.

Affected versions of the package are vulnerable to Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF). Sending an XML with a DOCTYPE declaration that loads an external DTD, a malicious user can send a GET request to the host on behalf of a vulnerable xml-rpc endpoint.
