CVE-2026-20320 is an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the Open Client Interface (OCI) XML Parser in Cisco BroadWorks. The parser permits external entity resolution by default. A remote unauthenticated attacker can submit a crafted XML message to the Open Client Interface Provisioning (OCI-P) service to cause external entity processing and disclose files or configuration data accessible to the Cisco BroadWorks user. Affected BroadWorks Application Delivery Platform, Application Server, Profile Server, and Xtended Services Platform releases prior to RI.2026.07 are affected.
