Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a web application that is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

Description

The instance of Atlassian JIRA hosted on the remote web server is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the ConfigurePortalPages resource due to improper validation of user-supplied input data.
