M\u00e1s detalles: Oozie Workflow Scheduler ten\u00eda una vulnerabilidad que permit\u00eda la lectura de archivos a nivel ra\u00edz y la escalada de privilegios de usuarios con pocos privilegios. La vulnerabilidad se debi\u00f3 a la falta de una validaci\u00f3n adecuada de la entrada del usuario. Esta vulnerabilidad se conoce como ataque de inyecci\u00f3n de entidad externa XML (XXE). Los atacantes pueden aprovechar las vulnerabilidades de XXE para leer archivos arbitrarios en el servidor, incluidos archivos confidenciales del sistema. En teor\u00eda, podr\u00eda ser posible utilizar esto para aumentar los privilegios."
