| Detailed Description |
IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5 prior to Fix Pack 12 is running on the remote host. It is, therefore, affected by multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the Admin Console due to a failure to validate input before returning it to users. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit these, via a specially crafted URL, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session within the security context of the hosting website.
* Note: This check solely relied on the banner of the remote Web server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
