CVE-2026-2445Network attack vector

Browser script execution via unencoded URL parameters

Published Jul 20, 2026 · Updated Jul 20, 2026

Reflected XSS in WSO2 API Manager, API Control Plane, and Identity Server allows remote attackers to run script through crafted URLs. The authentication portal's country-dropdown.jsp and modal.jsp render URL parameters into HTML without context-appropriate encoding. A user must open the crafted URL; script runs in that browser context and can redirect the page, alter its interface, or read browser-accessible data, while httpOnly session cookies remain inaccessible.
