Exploit:
CyberPower Systems PowerPanel 3.1.2 XXE Out-Of-Band Data Retrieval


Vendor: CyberPower Systems, Inc.
Product web page: https://www.cyberpowersystems.com
Affected version: 3.1.2 (37567) Business Edition

Summary: The PowerPanel® Business Edition software from
CyberPower provides IT professionals with the tools they
need to easily monitor and manage their backup power.
Available for compatible CyberPower UPS models, this
software supports up to 250 clients, allowing users remote
access (from any network PC with a web browser) to instantly
access vital UPS battery conditions, load levels, and runtime
information. Functionality includes application/OS shutdown,
event logging, hibernation mode, internal reports and analysis,
remote management, and more.

Desc: PowerPanel suffers from an unauthenticated XML External
Entity (XXE) vulnerability using the DTD parameter entities
technique resulting in disclosure and retrieval of arbitrary
data on the affected node via out-of-band (OOB) attack. The
vulnerability is triggered when input passed to the xmlservice
servlet using the ppbe.xml script is not sanitized while parsing the
xml inquiry payload returned by the JAXB element translation.
