CVE-2025-2905: WSO2 API Manager

Critical severity, CVSS 9.1. EPSS: 1.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Due to the improper configuration of XML parser, user-supplied XML is parsed without applying sufficient restrictions, enabling XML External Entity (XXE) resolution in multiple WSO2 Products. A successful XXE attack could allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to: * Read sensitive files from the server’s filesystem. * Perform denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, which can render the affected service unavailable.

Affected products

• WSO2 API Manager: up to and including 2.0.0
