XML External Entity (XXE) injection in the XSLTransformer component of pkp-lib - the shared PHP library underlying Open Journal Systems, Open Monograph Press, and Open Preprint Systems - allows high-privileged authenticated users to force server-side external entity resolution during XSLT processing, enabling local file disclosure and potential server-side request forgery. Affected branches span all three actively maintained release lines (3.3.x, 3.4.x, 3.5.x) with vendor-released patches confirmed for each. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
