OVERVIEW

A reflected cross site scripting vulnerability.

DESCRIPTION

Due to a lack of encoding in the error message, a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack can be carried out by injecting a malicious payload into the JDBC user store connection validation request.

IMPACT

By leveraging the XSS attack, a malicious actor can make the browser get redirected to a malicious website, make changes in the UI of the web page, retrieve information from the browser or harm otherwise. However, since all the session related sensitive cookies are set with httpOnly flag and protected, session hijacking or similar attacks would not be possible.
