CVE-2018-11796 [HIGH] CVE-2018-11796: In Apache Tika 1.19 (CVE-2018-11761), we added an entity expansion limit for XML parsing. However, T In Apache Tika 1.19 (CVE-2018-11761), we added an entity expansion limit for XML parsing. However, Tika reuses SAXParsers and calls reset() after each parse, which, for Xerces2 parsers, as per the documentation, removes the user-specified SecurityManager and thus removes entity expansion limits after the first parse. Apache Tika versions from 0.1 to 1.19 are
