Liferay Enterprise Portal Multiple XSS and HTML Injection Vulnerabilities

Liferay Enterprise Portal is vulnerable to multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) and HTML injection vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities occur because user-supplied data from various input fields is included in server-generated content without proper validation or encoding. This allows for typical XSS attacks against other users of the portal.

Mitigation:

To mitigate these vulnerabilities, it is recommended to implement proper input validation and encoding on user-supplied data before including it in server-generated content. Additionally, users should be educated about the risks of XSS attacks and how to prevent them.
