Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Umbraco CMS (UmbracoCms.Web) versions before 7.7.3 are vulnerable to XML external entity (XXE) injection in the document type import dialog. An attacker who can submit crafted XML to that feature can read files on the server and send TCP requests to internal hosts, which is a server-side request forgery risk. Upgrade to version 7.7.3 or later. The source gives few details about the required privileges.
