CVE-2022-46907Network attack vector

Cross-site scripting via unescaped plugin parameters

Published May 25, 2023 · Updated Feb 13, 2025

Cross-site scripting in Apache JSPWiki before 2.12.0 allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript in a victim's browser. BugReportHandler, InsertPage, FormOpen, FormOutput, Search, CurrentTimePlugin, and Header.jsp place request or plugin parameters into HTML without entity encoding. Exploitation requires a victim to open the crafted response and permits script execution in the JSPWiki origin, including access to browser-visible sensitive data.
