Description

Symptom

Internet Sales does not sufficiently encode user-controlled inputs, resulting in a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. Some well-known impacts of XSS vulnerability include:

  • Non-permanently defacing or modifying displayed content from a web site
  • Stealing authentication information of the user, such as data relating to their current session
  • Impersonating the user and accessing all information with the same rights as the target user

Solution

The required input validation has been added to prevent a successful XSS attack. This SAP note contains Java Correction(s) for E-Commerce / Web Channel.
