Description

An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability exists in the Ambari/Oozie project allowing an attacker to inject malicious XML entities. This vulnerability occurs due to insecure parsing of XML input using the DocumentBuilderFactory class without disabling external entity resolution.

The issue has been fixed in both Ambari 2.7.9 and the trunk branch.
