XML validation manipulation due to incomplete application of use-grammar-pool-only in xercesImpl
CVE: CVE-2020-14338
Component: wildfly
CWE: CWE-20
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 5.3/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
Release date: 2020-08-27T00:00:00+00:00

A flaw was found in Wildfly's implementation of Xerces, specifically in the way the XMLSchemaValidator class in the JAXP component of Wildfly enforced the "use-grammar-pool-only" feature. This flaw allows a specially-crafted XML file to manipulate the validation process in certain cases. This issue is the same flaw as CVE-2020-14621, which affected OpenJDK, and uses a similar code.
