Remote XSS via undisclosed web input
Published Jun 16, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Cross-site scripting in Micro Focus ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager 7.0.x, 7.2 and 7.2.1 allows remote attackers to execute script through the web interface. The vendor and CNA records do not disclose the affected page, parameter, or sanitization failure, so the precise input-handling locus remains undisclosed. Exploitation requires a victim to load the attacker-controlled content; reported consequences are script execution in that user's browser and possible information disclosure, without evidence of service interruption.
