Nmap 7.70 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows local attackers to crash the application by processing malicious XML files with exponential entity expansion. Attackers can create a crafted XML file with nested entity definitions and open it through ZenMap's scan import functionality to cause the program to consume excessive system resources and crash.
A flaw was found in Nmap and ZenMap. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious XML file with nested entity definitions. When this file is opened through ZenMap's scan import functionality, it causes the program to consume excessive system resources, leading to a denial of service (DoS) by crashing the application.
