Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Secure configuration settings can disable external entity processing in XML parsers.
Developer testing can discover XXE flaws through targeted XML parsing tests.
Input validation can reject or sanitize XML containing external entity references.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Vulnerability scanning can discover XXE flaws but does not prevent their introduction in code.
Hardened XML parser configurations directly disable external entity resolution.
Patching eliminates XXE-vulnerable parser versions but is only one aspect of software maintenance.
Secure SDLC practices include input validation and safe XML parser configuration that prevent XXE.
