Multiple XSS Oracle WebCenter Sites (FatWire Content Server) 7.x < 11gR1
The backend of the Content Server is prone to permanent and reflected Cross-Site Scripting attacks. The vulnerability can be used to include HTML- or JavaScript code to the affected web page. The code is executed in the browser of users if they visit the manipulated site. The vulnerability can be used to change the contents of the displayed site, redirect to other sites or steal user credentials. Additionally, Portal users are potential victims of browser exploits and JavaScript Trojans.
Mitigation:
Implement input validation and output encoding to prevent XSS attacks. Keep software up to date.
