Vulnerability Details
Fixes are available for the following security vulnerabilities in IBM
WebSphere Portal:
CVEID: CVE-2014-0951
DESCRIPTION:
IBM WebSphere Portal is vulnerable to cross-site scripting, caused by
improper validation of user-supplied input by the FilterForm.jsp script. A
remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially-crafted
URL to execute script in a victim's Web browser within the security context
of the hosting Web site, once the URL is clicked. An attacker could use this
vulnerability to steal the victim's cookie-based authentication credentials.
