Overview

org.dspace:dspace-xmlui is a web-based user interface based upon Apache Cocoon.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure in the generate() functions of cocoon/DSpaceMETSGenerator.java and cocoon/DSpaceOREGenerator.java, which expose metadata on withdrawn items in the mets.xml object. An attacker in possession of the handle/URL of a withdrawn item can retrieve the metadata.

Note: This vulnerability does not impact the JSPUI or versions 7.
