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-2023-46035 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- svg_optimizer (RubyGems): affected from 0.2.6; fixed in 0.3.0\n- svg_optimizer (RubyGems): affected from 0.2.6; fixed in 0.3.0\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-2023-46035/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-46035/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-46035","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-46035/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-46035","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6hvg-62q8-95v7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ruby SVG optimizer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service or read sensitive data via entity expansion in untrusted SVG documents using the svg_optimizer Ruby gem.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-776","name":"Improper Restriction of Recursive Entity References in DTDs"}],"description":"The svg_optimizer gem before 0.3.0 for Ruby performs entity expansion on untrusted documents.","ecosystems":["RubyGems"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"svg_optimizer rubygem external XML entity (XXE) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-46035","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xxe","year":"2023"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-46040"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["0.3.0"],"introduced":["0.2.6"],"last_affected":[],"package":"svg_optimizer","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6hvg-62q8-95v7"},{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["0.3.0"],"introduced":["0.2.6"],"last_affected":[],"package":"svg_optimizer","purl":"pkg:gem/svg_optimizer","source":"GHSA-6hvg-62q8-95v7"}],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-46033"},"products":["svg_optimizer"],"published":"2026-09-14","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-14","vendors":["fnando"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service or read sensitive data via entity expansion in untrusted SVG documents using the svg_optimizer Ruby gem.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-46035/"}
