ERPNext is a free and open source Enterprise Resource Planning tool. Prior to 15.104.3 and 16.12.0, an improper restriction of XML external entity (XXE) reference vulnerability in the EDI Module enables an authenticated attacker to read files from the local file system, including sensitive configuration files. This vulnerability is fixed in 15.104.3 and 16.12.0.
AnalysisAI
XML External Entity (XXE) injection in ERPNext's EDI Module allows authenticated low-privilege attackers to read arbitrary files from the server's local filesystem, including sensitive configuration files that may contain database credentials or API keys. Affected are all ERPNext installations on the v15 branch prior to 15.104.3 and on the v16 branch prior to 16.12.0 (cpe:2.3:a:frappe:erpnext:*). …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Authentication is required: the CVSS 4.0 vector specifies PR:L (low-privilege authenticated access), meaning an attacker must hold a valid ERPNext account of any role. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.3 (Medium) reflects a network-reachable (AV:N), low-complexity (AC:L), no-prerequisite-condition (AT:N) attack requiring only low-privilege authentication (PR:L) with no user interaction (UI:N). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with a valid low-privilege ERPNext account - such as a supplier portal user or a recently on-boarded employee - navigates to the EDI Module and submits a crafted XML document containing an external entity declaration referencing a local file path such as /home/frappe/frappe-bench/sites/[site]/site_config.json. The server's XML parser resolves the entity and the application returns the file's contents in its response, exposing the database password and Frappe secret key stored in that configuration file. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade ERPNext to version 15.104.3 (v15 branch) or 16.12.0 (v16 branch) as the primary remediation; these are the vendor-confirmed fixed releases per GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-mhm9-75w7-423r (https://github.com/frappe/erpnext/security/advisories/GHSA-mhm9-75w7-423r). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
