Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
An XML External Entity injection (XXE) vulnerability in ENOVIA Live Collaboration V6R2013xE allows an attacker to read local files on the server.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

An XML External Entity injection (XXE) vulnerability in ENOVIA Live Collaboration V6R2013xE allows attackers to read local files on the server by crafting malicious XML payloads with external entity references.

MitigationDisable XML external entity (XXE) processing in the XML parser configuration and implement input validation to reject XML containing DTDs or external entity declarations.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed ENOVIA Live Collaboration version
    Access the application administration interface or check system configuration files for the exact version number of 3ds Enovia Live Collaboration
    Affected if The version is 6R2013xE or later but earlier than v6r2013xe_fp.cfa.2240
  2. Locate XML processing configuration files
    Search for XML parser or configuration files in the application directory structure, typically under the Live Collaboration configuration folders
    Affected if Configuration files exist and the application accepts XML input through web endpoints or import functions
  3. Verify XML input acceptance
    Check if the application exposes endpoints that accept XML data, such as XML import, data upload, or integration interfaces
    Affected if The application processes XML payloads from users or external systems
  4. Check XML parser security settings
    Examine XML parser configuration for external entity processing settings - look for flags related to DTD processing, external entity resolution, or XXE protection
    Affected if The XML parser has XXE protection disabled or not explicitly configured to block external entities (no explicit disabling of external entity processing)

The environment is affected if running 3ds Enovia Live Collaboration version 6R2013xE through v6r2013xe_fp.cfa.2239 and the application processes XML input without XXE protections configured.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Disable XML external entity (XXE) processing in the XML parser configuration and implement input validation to reject XML containing DTDs or external entity declarations.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

v6r2013xe_fp.cfa.2240

  1. 1. Verify current Enovia Live Collaboration version is >= v6r2013xe and < v6r2013xe_fp.cfa.2240
  2. 2. Schedule a maintenance window for the upgrade
  3. 3. Perform a full backup of the Enovia Live Collaboration database and configuration files
  4. 4. Download the fixed version v6r2013xe_fp.cfa.2240 from the official Dassault Systèmes 3DS support portal (www.3ds.com)
  5. 5. Install the upgrade following the official Enovia upgrade documentation
  6. 6. After upgrade, verify the version is v6r2013xe_fp.cfa.2240 or later
  7. 7. Test that the application functions normally post-upgrade
