Descriptions

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.5.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a (1) parameter or (2) id name.

Múltiples vulnerabilidades de XSS en Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit 2.5.0 permiten a atacantes remotos inyectar script Web o HTML arbitrarios a través de un (1) parámetro o (2) nombre id.

Red Hat JBoss Web Framework Kit combines popular open source web frameworks into a single solution for Java applications. The JBoss Seam Remoting component provides a convenient method for remotely accessing Seam components from a web page, using AJAX. It was found that JBoss Seam response envelopes included unsanitized parameter and ID names provided in the request. This allowed a request to inject arbitrary XML into the response. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform reflected cross-site scripting attacks, provided the JBoss Seam remoting application did not use any cross-site request forgery protection.
