Detail
| Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the example web applications for Jakarta Tomcat 5.5.6 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) el/functions.jsp, (2) el/implicit-objects.jsp, and (3) jspx/textRotate.jspx in examples/jsp2/, as demonstrated via script in a request to snp/snoop.jsp. NOTE: other XSS issues in the manager were simultaneously reported, but these require admin access and do not cross privilege boundaries. |

| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 34879 | Apache Tomcat examples/jsp2/jspx/textRotate.jspx XSS Apache Tomcat contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate user-supplied input upon submission to the /examples/jsp2/jspx/textRotate.jspx script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity. |
| 34878 | Apache Tomcat examples/jsp2/el/implicit-objects.jsp XSS Apache Tomcat contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate user-supplied input upon submission to the /examples/jsp2/el/implicit-objects.jsp script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity. |
| 12721 | Apache Tomcat examples/jsp2/el/functions.jsp XSS Apache Tomcat contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack.
