AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, it is recommended to disable XML batch processing with the XPath option or apply any vendor-recommended configuration changes to restrict XML entity processing to mitigate XXE risks.

Description

When XML batch processing is turned on and the XPath option is selected, the raw batch input goes through a default XPath/JAXP setup with no entity restrictions, so XXE injection can allow data exfiltration and denial-of-service attacks.
