Summary

A security flaw in the Cisco Jabber Client Framework has the potential to allow a remote attacker, who is already authenticated, to launch cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks against users of the affected devices. This vulnerability stems from inadequate input handling during the generation of web pages.
