As a developer using StAX, you decide which XML stream events you want to react to, so XXE control constructs won't be processed automatically by the parser."}, "name": "CVE-2017-7503", "package_state": [{"cpe": "cpe:/a:redhat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7", "fix_state": "Fix deferred", "package_name": "XML Frameworks", "product_name": "Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7"}], "public_date": "2017-05-18T00:00:00Z", "references": ["https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2017-7503\nhttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-7503"], "threat_severity": "Moderate"}
