Descriptions

In Eclipse Ditto versions 3.0.0 to 3.5.5, the user input of several input fields of the Eclipse Ditto Explorer User Interface https://eclipse.dev/ditto/user-interface.html was not properly neutralized and thus vulnerable to both Reflected and Stored XSS (Cross Site Scripting).





Several inputs were not persisted at the backend of Eclipse Ditto, but only in local browser storage to save settings of "environments" of the UI and e.g. the last performed "search queries", resulting in a "Reflected XSS" vulnerability.




However, several other inputs were persisted at the backend of Eclipse Ditto, leading to a "Stored XSS" vulnerability. Those mean that authenticated and authorized users at Eclipse Ditto can persist Things in Ditto which can - when being displayed by other users also being authorized to see those Things in the Eclipse Ditto UI - cause scripts to be executed in the browser of other users.

En las versiones 3.0.0 a 3.5.5 de Eclipse Ditto, la entrada del usuario de varios campos de entrada de la interfaz de usuario de Eclipse Ditto Explorer https://eclipse.dev/ditto/user-interface.html no se neutralizó adecuadamente y, por lo tanto, fue vulnerable a ambos. XSS reflejado y almacenado (Cross Site Scripting). Varias entradas no persistieron en el backend de Eclipse Ditto, sino solo en el almacenamiento del navegador local para guardar la configuración de los "entornos" de la interfaz de usuario y, por ejemplo, las últimas "consultas de búsqueda" realizadas, lo que resultó en una vulnerabilidad "XSS reflejada". Sin embargo, varias otras entradas persistieron en el backend de Eclipse Ditto, lo que provocó una vulnerabilidad "Stored XSS". Esto significa que los usuarios autenticados y autorizados en Eclipse Ditto pueden conservar cosas en Ditto que pueden, cuando son mostradas por otros usuarios que también están autorizados a ver esas cosas en la interfaz de usuario de Eclipse Ditto, provocar que se ejecuten scripts en el navegador de otros usuarios.
