Machine-written summary

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

Opencast versions before 17.6 (packages opencast-common, opencast-ingest-service-impl, opencast-kernel, and opencast-publication-service-oaipmh-remote under org.opencastproject) can send the hashed global system account credentials to an arbitrary URL when fetching mediapackage elements referenced in a mediapackage XML file. An attacker with ingest permissions can trigger this by supplying such a file. Upgrade to Opencast 17.6 or later.
