New! CVE Severity Now Using CVSS v3

The calculated severity for CVEs has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. CVEs that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.

Description

OpenMRS 2.9 and prior copies "Referrer" header values into an html element named "redirectUrl" within many webpages (such as login.htm). There is insufficient validation for this parameter, which allows for the possibility of cross-site scripting.
