Description
In Apache OFBiz 16.11.01 to 16.11.04, the OFBiz HTTP engine (org.apache.ofbiz.service.engine.HttpEngine.java) handles requests for HTTP services via the /webtools/control/httpService endpoint.

The exploitation occurs by having DOCTYPEs pointing to external references that trigger a payload that returns secret information from the host.
