MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache ActiveMQ versions prior to 5.8.0
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, potentially leading to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This can be achieved through various vectors, including the
refresh parameter to PortfolioPublishServlet.java, debug logs, or subscribe messages in webapp/websocket/chat.js.Recommendations
For versions prior to 5.8.0, update to version 5.8.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
PortfolioPublishServlet.java and webapp/websocket/chat.js components to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the refresh parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
