CVE-2019-4746Network attack vector

Credential disclosure via embedded Web UI JavaScript

Published Apr 8, 2020 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Cross-site scripting in IBM DOORS Next 6.0.2, 6.0.6, and 6.0.6.1 allows remote authenticated users to run JavaScript. IBM has not disclosed the affected Web UI field or the missing output-neutralization step; it states only that user-supplied JavaScript is embedded in the interface. An authenticated user must store the payload and another user must view the affected content in a trusted session, enabling interface changes and credential disclosure.
