Summary

Quest Foglight for Databases from 8.2.0 is affected. The AbstractParser class does not restrict XML external entity references (CWE-611), so the XML parser fetches an attacker-specified URI and embeds its contents in the document. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can disclose sensitive information by sending a crafted XML document.

Quest Foglight for Databases AbstractParser XML External Entity Processing Information Disclosure Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Quest Foglight for Databases. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the AbstractParser class.
