Apache Isis Cross-site Scripting vulnerability

  • Disclosed: 19.10.2022
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 11:21

Prior to 2.0.0-M9, it was possible for an end-user to set the value of an editable string property of a domain object to a value that would be rendered unchanged when the value was saved. In particular, the end-user could enter javascript or similar and this would be executed. As of this release, the inputted strings are properly escaped when rendered.
