Reflected XSS Vulnerability in JBoss BRMS and BPM Suite by Red Hat

CVE-2017-7463

What is CVE-2017-7463?

JBoss BRMS and BPM Suite versions prior to 6.4.3 are susceptible to reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to a flaw in the artifact upload functionality. When a malformed XML file is uploaded, the application fails to properly sanitize error messages, echoing parts of the submitted XML code back to the user. This lack of filtering allows attackers to embed malicious scripts, which can be executed in the context of the affected user's session, potentially leading to unauthorized actions and data breaches.
