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-2019-5442 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- ro.pippo:pippo-jaxb (Maven): affected all versions up to 1.12.0; no fix listed\n- ro.pippo:pippo-jaxb (Maven): affected all versions up to 1.12.0; no fix listed\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-2019-5442/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5442/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-5442","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5442/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-5442","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hwcx-9p4j-7hwj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pippo web framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a Denial of Service in Pippo by triggering recursive XML entity expansion, exhausting JVM memory.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"pippo","vendor":"pippo"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-776","name":"Improper Restriction of Recursive Entity References in DTDs"}],"description":"XML Entity Expansion (Billion Laughs Attack) on Pippo 1.12.0 results in Denial of Service.Entities are created recursively and large amounts of heap memory is taken.
