IBM Rational ClearQuest Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
IBM Rational ClearQuest is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary local or remote script code in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data does not contain malicious code. Additionally, applications should use a secure method of transmitting sensitive information, such as cookies, to prevent attackers from stealing this data.
