CVE-2023-28517Network attack vector

Credential disclosure via reflected Web UI script

Published Mar 13, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Reflected XSS in IBM Sterling Partner Engagement Manager 6.1.2, 6.2.0, and 6.2.2 allows remote authenticated users to inject JavaScript. IBM identifies the locus only as the Web UI and does not disclose which parameter or handler reflects input without neutralizing executable content. An authenticated user must submit the payload and a victim must render the affected response; execution in that trusted session can expose credentials and alter UI behavior.
