CVE-2020-14338 - Medium Severity Vulnerability

Vulnerable Library - xercesImpl-2.9.1.jar

Xerces2 is the next generation of high performance, fully compliant XML parsers in the Apache Xerces family. This new version of Xerces introduces the Xerces Native Interface (XNI), a complete framework for building parser components and configurations that is extremely modular and easy to program.

Path to dependency file: griffin/service/hibernate_mysql_pom.xml

Path to vulnerable library: /home/wss-scanner/.m2/repository/xerces/xercesImpl/2.9.1/xercesImpl-2.9.1.jar

Dependency Hierarchy: - hadoop-client-2.7.1.jar (Root Library) - hadoop-hdfs-2.7.1.jar - :x: **xercesImpl-2.9.1.jar** (Vulnerable Library)

Vulnerability Details

A flaw was found in Wildfly's implementation of Xerces, specifically in the way the XMLSchemaValidator class in the JAXP component of Wildfly enforced the "use-grammar-pool-only" feature. This flaw allows a specially-crafted XML file to manipulate the validation process in certain cases. This issue is the same flaw as CVE-2020-14621, which affected OpenJDK, and uses a similar code. This flaw affects all Xerces JBoss versions before 2.12.0.SP3.
