Sun Java System Calendar Server Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Sun Java System Calendar Server is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that untrusted data is not used to generate dynamic content. Additionally, applications should use a whitelist of acceptable inputs that strictly define what type of data can be accepted.
