EPSS

• CVE-2014-2682: 2.18% estimated exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 82.39 (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-03). This is a model estimate, not proof of exploitation or customer exposure.

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Zend Framework 1 (ZF1) before 1.12.4, Zend Framework 2 before 2.1.6 and 2.2.x before 2.2.6, ZendOpenId, ZendRest, ZendServiceAudioScrobbler, ZendServiceNirvanix, ZendServiceSlideShare, ZendServiceTechnorati, and ZendServiceWindowsAzure before 2.0.2, ZendServiceAmazon before 2.0.3, and ZendServiceApi before 1.0.0, when PHP-FPM is used, does not properly share the libxmldisableentityloader setting between threads, which might allow remote attackers to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) attacks via an XML external entity declaration in conjunction with an entity reference. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-5657.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2014-2682

Advisory: Several Zend Products Vulnerable to XXE and XEE attacks
IDs: CVE-2014-2682, GHSA-gp39-h9c2-qw79
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2014-2682 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:09 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Unrated
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: zendframework/zendservice-amazon 2.0.3; zendframework/zendservice-api 1.0.0; zendframework/zendservice-technorati 2.0.2; zendframework/zendrest 2.0.2; zendframework/zendservice-windowsazure 2.0.2; zendframework/zendservice-slideshare 2.0.2; zendframework/zendservice-audioscrobbler 2.0.2; zendframework/zendframework1 1.12.4; zendframework/zendservice-nirvanix 2.0.2; zendframework/zendopenid 2.0.2. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-amazon: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-api: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-technorati: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendrest: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-windowsazure: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-slideshare: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-audioscrobbler: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendframework1: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendservice-nirvanix: check the installed version with your package manager.
- Packagist zendframework/zendopenid: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on zendframework/zendservice-amazon, zendframework/zendservice-api, zendframework/zendservice-technorati, zendframework/zendrest, zendframework/zendservice-windowsazure, zendframework/zendservice-slideshare, zendframework/zendservice-audioscrobbler, zendframework/zendframework1, zendframework/zendservice-nirvanix, zendframework/zendopenid.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
