Build Of Apicurio Registry
Monthly
CPU and heap exhaustion in Apicurio Registry's XML artifact processing pipeline allows authenticated users with artifact-write permission to cause denial of service via billion-laughs entity expansion. The DocumentBuilderAccessor correctly blocks external DTD and schema resolution - preventing SSRF/XXE - but omits two complementary protections: disabling DOCTYPE declarations entirely and enabling JAXP's FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING flag, leaving the parser exposed to recursive internal entity expansion. No active exploitation (CISA KEV) or confirmed public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS data was not provided in the input.
