Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apache Struts version 2.3.15.3

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the namespace parameter to specific API endpoints, including "actionNames.action" and "showConfig.action" in the config-browser/ directory. This enables attackers to execute malicious scripts on the victim's browser.

Recommendations For Apache Struts version 2.3.15.3, consider disabling access to the "actionNames.action" and "showConfig.action" endpoints in the config-browser/ directory until a patch is available. Additionally, restrict the use of the namespace parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
