description

Apache Camel camel-smooks is affected when it processes XML with its default reader in versions 4.7.0 through before 4.18.5, or 4.19.0 through before 4.22.1. An attacker able to submit XML to a vulnerable Smooks endpoint or data format may access files available to the Camel process or induce requests to internal network services. Deployments using non-XML or custom readers are not affected.

mitigation

Upgrade camel-smooks to 4.18.5 or 4.22.1, or upgrade to Apache Camel 4.23.0. Until upgraded, prevent untrusted XML from reaching camel-smooks; move end-of-life release lines to a supported version.

fixed in 4.18.5, 4.22.1
