SAP Note 1339620

SAP security note 1339620, “Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in cFolders”, is a note. Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution, reason and prerequisites, CVSS rating and the affected software components.

Description

Symptom

This SAP Security Note describes how to reduce the risk of possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks in cFolders.

In general, all Web Servers that accept input parameters via HTTP requests, dynamically generate HTML pages based on these inputs, and then return this dynamically generated content as a response to the client (browser) are potentially vulnerable to "Cross Site Scripting" attacks.

Under some circumstances, JavaScript code can be injected through input fields and URLs as parameters. This can cause abrupt behavior in the cFolders application on various pages.
