Hi Jody,
yep, I've just confirmed that as-is, the code is pretty much useless and a
XEE attack can be performed.
The hints do not have a path to be passed down, as they originate here, and
are hard-coded:

https://github.com/geotools/geotools/blob/master/modules/extension/wms/src/main/java/org/geotools/data/wms/response/WMSGetCapabilitiesResponse.java#L50

Modest proposal... what about we pull the values from the system hints? (I
guess it matches your option of "playing silly games with global settings").
However we should be explicit that whatever is set there applies only to
the code using the old parser). Any suggestion for the names?

Changing the API would instead entail adding constructors all over the
place, since the caps parsing is done right at construction time (rather
extensive set of changes).

The thing is, this stuff is blocking the stable release....

Btw, I was worried about GetFeatureInfo cascading, but that's done in
GeoServer and it's already covered by the customizable entity resolver.

Cheers
Andrea
