+
+CVE-2017-12627: Apache Xerces-C DTD vulnerability processing external paths
+
+Severity: Medium
+
+Vendor: The Apache Software Foundation
+
+Versions Affected: Apache Xerces-C XML Parser library versions
+prior to V3.2.1
+
+Description: The Xerces-C XML parser mishandles certain kinds of external
+DTD references, resulting in dereference of a NULL pointer while processing
+the path to the DTD. The bug allows for a denial of service attack in
+applications that allow DTD processing and do not prevent external DTD
+usage, and could conceivably result in remote code execution.
+
+Mitigation: Applications that are using library versions older than
+V3.2.1 should upgrade as soon as possible. Distributors of older versions
+should apply the patch from this subversion revision:
+
+http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1819998
+
+Applications should strongly consider blocking remote entity resolution
+and/or outright disabling of DTD processing in light of the continued
+identification of bugs in this area of the library.
+
+Credit: This issue was reported by Alberto Garcia, Francisco Oca,
+and Suleman Ali of Offensive Research at Salesforce.com.
