Synopsis

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform installed on the remote Windows host is affected by a XSS vulnerability

Description

The version of SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 4.1 SP12 P9, 4.2 SP8 P5 or 4.2 SP9 P0. It is, therefore, affected by a XSS vulnerability. An authenticated attacker is allowed to inject malicious JavaScript payload into the custom value input field of an Input Control, which can be executed by any user who views the relevant application content, leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting.

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

See vendor advisories.
