IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager 6.2.2 < 6.2.2 FP16 XSS (swg21974157)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 88090

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

Description

The version of IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager installed on the remote Windows host is 6.2.2.x prior to 6.2.2.16. It is, therefore, affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted URL, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session.

Solution

Upgrade to IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager 6.2.2 FP16 (6.2.2.16) or later.
