CVE-2014-0225: Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference
(updated )
When processing user provided XML documents, the Spring Framework 4.0.0 to 4.0.4, 3.0.0 to 3.2.8, and possibly earlier unsupported versions does not disable by default the resolution of URI references in a DTD declaration. This enabled an XXE attack.
