Blosxom · Blosxom · CVE-2008-2236
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Blosxom versions prior to 2.1.2
Description:
A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the `flav` parameter, which is related to the `flavour` variable. This can be exploited by sending malicious input to the `/blosxom.cgi` endpoint.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 2.1.2, update to version 2.1.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `flav` parameter in the `blosxom.cgi` endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation.
