medium Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113808

Synopsis

Atlassian Jira < 7.6.0 Xss In SearchRequest.xml Resource

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the instance of Atlassian Jira hosted on the remote web server is prior to 7.6.0. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability which permits remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript via a cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability through various fields in the searchrequest-xml resource.

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 7.6.1 or later.
