Description Kurt Seifried 2011-12-29 21:20:03 UTC

Reference: MISC:https://sitewat.ch/Advisory/View/4

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the wiki
application in Yaws 1.88 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary
web script or HTML via (1) the tag parameter to editTag.yaws, (2) the
index parameter to showOldPage.yaws, (3) the node parameter to
allRefsToMe.yaws, or (4) the text parameter to editPage.yaws.

This issue does not affects the version of yaws package as shipped with Fedora and EPEL, since we dont ship the wiki component.

Comment 2 Kurt Seifried 2012-01-03 04:37:13 UTC

Wrong yaws (yaws is a minimal web server, yaws-wiki is a wiki).
