Description
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input within the "DataExchange" route. A remote administrator can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.
