CVE-2010-4647

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Eclipse IDE versions prior to 3.6.2

Description The issue concerns multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the Help Contents web application of the Eclipse IDE. These vulnerabilities allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the query string to specific API endpoints, such as "help/index.jsp" or "help/advanced/content.jsp".

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.6.2, update to version 3.6.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Help Contents web application until the update is applied. Avoid using the query string in the affected API endpoints until the issue is resolved.
