An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-9180 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9180/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9180/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9180","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9180/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9180","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-9180","GHSA-6wjc-jvcr-hcxw","SUSE-SU-2020:2172-1","SUSE-SU-2020:2173-1","SUSE-SU-2020:2173-2","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-9180","openSUSE-SU-2020:1177-1","openSUSE-SU-2020:1204-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:11164-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl XML::Twig library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"The Perl XML::Twig library fails to disable external entity expansion, allowing attackers to trigger XXE attacks for data disclosure or denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xml-twig_for_perl","vendor":"xmltwig"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"perl-XML-Twig: The option to `expand_external_ents`, documented as controlling external entity expansion in XML::Twig does not work.
