Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-28008 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: HCL Software Workload Automation. 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-2023-28008/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28008/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-28008","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28008/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-28008","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pp98-436h-9qgg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Workload Automation","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can exploit XML processing flaws in HCL Workload Automation to expose sensitive information or cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HCL","cpe":[{"product":"workload_automation","vendor":"hcltech"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"HCL Workload Automation 9.4, 9.5, and 10.1 are vulnerable to an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data.
