+### XXE WAF Bypass via convert character encoding
+
+In XXE WAFs, DTD Prolog are usually blacklisted BUT not all WAFs blacklist the UTF-16 character encoding<br><br>
+`All XML processors must accept the UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings of Unicode` 
+-- https://www.w3.org/XML/xml-V10-4e-errata#E11
+<br><br>
+we can convert the character encoding to `UTF-16` using [iconv](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/iconv.1.html) to bypass the XXE WAF:-<br>
+```bash
+cat utf8exploit.xml | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16BE > utf16exploit.xml
+```
