SAP NetWeaver AS Java XSS (3505503)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 207242

Synopsis

The remote SAP NetWeaver application server is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

Description

Due to insufficient encoding of user-controlled inputs, SAP NetWeaver AS Java allows malicious scripts to be executed in the login application. This has a limited impact on confidentiality and integrity of the application. There is no impact on availability.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
