FAUCET Score

CVE-2013-4152 is an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability affecting the Spring OXM wrapper in Spring Framework versions prior to 3.2.4 and 4.0.0.M1 when using the JAXB marshaller. This flaw allows attackers to read arbitrary files, cause denial of service, and conduct CSRF attacks through specially crafted XML external entity declarations. With a CVSS score of 6.8 (Medium) and an EPSS score of 0.89, it poses a significant risk due to its network-based attack vector and medium complexity. Despite its high FAUCET Risk Score of 98/100, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or community discussion.
