CVE-2026-12992
HIGH 7.4A flaw was found in Apicurio Registry. The WSDLReaderAccessor creates a wsdl4j WSDLReader without disabling the javax.wsdl.importDocuments feature. When the VALIDITY rule is set to FULL, an attacker with Developer-role access can upload a WSDL document containing attacker-controlled import locations, causing the registry to issue HTTP requests to arbitrary internal URLs (server-side request forgery).
Severe if exploited (CVSS 7.4), but no known exploitation and low modeled probability. Patch on a normal cadence.
