CVE-2026-82578 PUBLISHED

NextGen Healthcare Mirth Connect Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference

Assigner: icscert
Reserved: 03.09.2026 Published: 11.09.2026 Updated: 11.09.2026

When XML batch processing is turned on and the XPath option is selected, the raw batch input goes through a default XPath/JAXP setup with no entity restrictions, so XXE injection can allow data exfiltration and denial-of-service attacks.
