Description Marian Rehak 2021-07-23 11:18:52 UTC
OWASP AntiSamy before 1.6.4 allows XSS via HTML attributes when using the HTML output serializer (XHTML is not affected). This was demonstrated by a javascript: URL with &#00058 as the replacement for the : character.

Comment 2 Jonathan Christison 2021-07-26 10:15:42 UTC
Marking Red Hat JBoss Fuse 6 as having a low impact, this is because although antisamy is present in the offline repository it is not used.

This vulnerability is out of security support scope for the following products:

 * Red Hat JBoss Fuse 6
