Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from two key flaws: 1) Unrestricted schema downloads allowed fetching resources via any protocol (not just http/https/ftp), enabling SSRF. 2) No size validation during schema downloads enabled DoS via large files. The fixes in 0.19.0 (protocol restrictions, download controls) and 0.18.3 (external resource settings) directly target these functions. The CacheResourcesManager handles the actual resource retrieval, while XMLSchemaValidator initiates schema resolution - both were missing critical security checks in vulnerable versions.
