CVSS v2.0

7.8

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:C/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apache Batik (affected versions not specified)
Description The issue is related to improper input validation by the xlink:href attributes, which can lead to server-side request forgery. An attacker could exploit this by using a specially-crafted argument to cause the underlying server to make arbitrary GET requests. This could potentially allow for CSRF attacks.
Recommendations As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the use of xlink:href attributes in Apache Batik until a patch is available. Restrict access to the vulnerable module to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using specially-crafted arguments that could trigger the vulnerability until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
