Loading vulnerability…
An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability exists in Openbravo ERP versions 2.5, 3.0, and earlier. The XML API improperly processes XML documents containing external entity declarations, allowing remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via crafted XML sent to /ws/dal/ADUser or similar /ws/dal/XXX interfaces. This is due to insecure XML parsing that permits external entity resolution.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module (modules/auxiliary/admin/http/openbravo_xxe.rb) that exploits an XXE (XML External Entity) vulnerability in the Openbravo ERP XML API (CVE-2013-3617). The module allows an authenticated attacker to read arbitrary files from the server's filesystem as the Openbravo user by sending crafted XML payloads to the API endpoint (default: /openbravo/ws/dal/ADUser). The exploit requires valid Openbravo credentials and targets versions 3.0MP25 and 2.50MP6, but may affect other versions as well. The main attack vector is network-based, leveraging HTTP requests to the vulnerable API. The payload is an XML document with an external entity referencing a local file (e.g., /etc/passwd). The module is operational and provides file read capability, storing the retrieved file as loot in Metasploit. The code is well-structured and follows standard Metasploit module conventions.
