             Summary: Cross-Site Scripting: Reflected Vulnerability in index.jsp
                 Key: CMIS-938
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-938
             Project: Chemistry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: opencmis-client
    Affects Versions: OpenCMIS 0.13.0
            Reporter: Donald Kwakkel


The method _jspService() in index.jsp sends unvalidated data to a web browser 
on line 131, which can result in the browser executing malicious code.

Explanation:

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities occur when:

1. Data enters a web application through an untrusted source. In the case of 
Reflected XSS, the untrusted source is typically a web request, while in the 
case of Persisted (also known as Stored) XSS it is typically a database or 
other back-end datastore.

In this case the data enters at getHeader() in 
ProxyHttpServletRequestWrapper.java at line 41.

2. The data is included in dynamic content that is sent to a web user without 
being validated.

In this case the data is sent at println() in index.jsp at line 131.
