Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from insecure XML parsing in CLIVersionUtils.parseXml. The commit diff shows security features were added to DocumentBuilderFactory in this function to mitigate XXE. The unpatched version lacked these protections, making XML parsing vulnerable to external entity injection. The function's role in parsing XML files from the Topaz Workbench CLI directory directly matches the attack vector described in the advisory.
