DescriptionCVE.org

Improper restriction of XML external entity references in the RemoteQueryCachePlugin in AWS Advanced JDBC Wrapper 3.3.0 through 4.2.0 might allow an actor with write access to the shared cache infrastructure to disclose sensitive files from application hosts that read cached query results, including stored database and IAM role credentials, via crafted XML data in a cached column value.

To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 4.3.0 or later.

AnalysisAI

XML External Entity (XXE) injection in the RemoteQueryCachePlugin of AWS Advanced JDBC Wrapper 3.3.0-4.2.0 allows an actor with write access to the shared cache infrastructure to exfiltrate sensitive files - including database credentials and IAM role credentials - from any application host that reads poisoned cached query results. The attack is conditioned on the RemoteQueryCachePlugin being enabled and the application caching XML column types (SQLXML); an adversary with cache write access injects crafted XML containing external entity references into a cached column value, which are resolved when the application deserializes the cached result. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires three specific conditions to be met simultaneously. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The supplied CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:L) encodes a moderate-to-medium real-world risk: AC:H correctly reflects that the attacker must first achieve write access to the shared cache (a significant prerequisite), and PR:L confirms some level of privilege is needed. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to AWS Advanced JDBC Wrapper version 4.3.0 or later, released 2026-07-23 and available at https://github.com/aws/aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper/releases/tag/4.3.0. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
