Synopsis

Atlassian Jira 8.15.x < 8.18.0 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the instance of Atlassian Jira hosted on the remote web server is 8.15.x prior to 8.18.0. It is, therefore, affected by a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Custom Fields creation feature on the AssociateFieldToScreens page allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Atlassian Jira version 8.18.0 or later.
