Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HTTP File Server (HFS) versions prior to 2.2c

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the userinfo subcomponent of a URL. This can lead to the execution of malicious scripts on the client-side.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.2c, update to version 2.2c or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the userinfo subcomponent of the URL to minimize the risk of exploitation.
