What is CVE-2006-5442?

ViewVC versions 1.0.2 and earlier are susceptible to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to the absence of charset specifications in HTTP headers and HTML documents. This oversight enables attackers to inject arbitrary UTF-7 encoded JavaScript code through crafted views, potentially leading to harmful interactions with users and exposing sensitive information. Users of ViewVC are advised to update to version 1.0.3 or later to mitigate this security risk.
