Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in IBM WebSphere Application Server (Application Server Software) (the affected version is unknown). It has been classified as problematic. Affected is an unknown code of the file plantsbywebsphere/login.jsp. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a cross site scripting vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-80. The product receives input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special characters such as "<", ">", and "&" that could be interpreted as web-scripting elements when they are sent to a downstream component that processes web pages. This is going to have an impact on integrity. CVE summarizes:
