Atlassian Jira < 7.2.2 Xss In Global Translation Resource

medium Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113815

Synopsis

Atlassian Jira < 7.2.2 Xss In Global Translation Resource

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the instance of Atlassian Jira hosted on the remote web server is prior to 7.2.2. It is, therefore, affected by a Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in includes/decorators/global-translations.jsp which allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the HTTP Host header.

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 7.6.2 or later.
