Install4j更新机制中的XXE漏洞分析与防护指南<\/h1>

1. 漏洞概述<\/h2>
本教学文档详细分析Install4j软件更新机制中存在的XML外部实体(XXE)漏洞，该漏洞影响Install4j 10.0.4及之前版本。攻击者可通过控制更新服务器响应或实施中间人攻击，利用此漏洞读取服务器敏感文件或发起其他攻击。<\/p>

2. 漏洞发现背景<\/h2>

发现场景<\/strong>：在研究Prosys OPC UA模拟服务器安装过程时发现异常行为<\/li>
触发条件<\/strong>：选择自动更新间隔后安装向导意外关闭<\/li>

相关软件<\/strong>：Install4j被广泛用于Burp Suite等知名软件的安装程序构建<\/li> <\/ul>
