2) Improper input validation

EUVDB-ID: #VU2803

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-1182

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting attack or cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists due to improper restrictions of the Validation configuration by ActionServlet.java in Apache Struts. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted input, trick the victim into opening it and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or cause the application to crash.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in denial of service.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

3) Cross-site scripting

EUVDB-ID: #VU88924

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2008-2025

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

CVSSv3.1: 6.4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2015-0899

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions on the target system.

The weakness exists due to an error in the MultiPageValidator implementation in Apache Struts. A remote attacker can supply a modified page parameter to bypass intended access restrictions.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
