Cross-Site Scripting in Eclipse IDE Help component

The Eclipse IDE Help component is vulnerable to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities due to inadequate input sanitization. An attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of a user visiting the affected site. This can lead to the theft of authentication credentials stored in cookies and enable the attacker to launch further attacks.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize all user-supplied input before rendering it in web pages. Additionally, developers should implement proper input validation and output encoding techniques to prevent cross-site scripting attacks.
