Vendor: Spring by Pivotal

Versions Affected:
- - Spring MVC 3.0.0 to 3.2.8
- - Spring MVC 4.0.0 to 4.0.1

option to control the processing of XML external entities and that processing is
now disabled by default. 

Mitigation:

- - Users of 3.x should upgrade to 3.2.8 or later
- - Users of 4.x should upgrade to 4.0.2 or later
