Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a type of Cross-site Scripting (XSS) called Reflected XSS found in OpenText™ Web Site Management Server versions 16.7.0 and 16.7.1.

It occurs because the application improperly neutralizes input during web page generation, allowing malicious JavaScript code to be injected inside URL parameters.

When the page preview renders these parameters, the malicious scripts can execute on the client side.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow attackers to execute malicious scripts in the context of a user's browser session.

Such execution can lead to theft of sensitive information, session hijacking, or performing actions on behalf of the user without their consent.

Because the vulnerability involves reflected XSS, it requires the user to click on a crafted URL containing the malicious script.
