Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in WSO2 Identity Server as Key Manager, API Manager and Identity Server (the affected version unknown). It has been declared as problematic. This vulnerability affects an unknown part of the component Error Message Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a injection vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-74.
