Synopsis

Atlassian Confluence < 7.19.18 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the Atlassian Confluence application running on the remote host is prior to 7.19.18, 7.20.x prior to 8.5.5 or 8.7.x prior to 8.7.2. It is, therefore, affected by a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
