CVE-2012-2928
First published: Tue May 22 2012(Updated: )
The Gliffy plugin before 3.7.1 for Atlassian JIRA, and before 4.2 for Atlassian Confluence, does not properly restrict the capabilities of third-party XML parsers, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via unspecified vectors.
