Description:
Moshe BA has discovered some vulnerabilities in JSPWiki, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks or to disclose potentially sensitive information, and by malicious users to potentially compromise a vulnerable system.
1) Input passed to the "editor" parameter in Edit.jsp is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
2) Input passed to the "editor" parameter in Edit.jsp is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.
NOTE: The vulnerability can potentially be exploited by a malicious user to execute arbitrary script code by uploading a malicious attachment.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.4.104. Other versions prior to 2.6.1 may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 2.6.1.
Provided and/or discovered by:
