Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Microsoft SharePoint Server (affected versions not specified)
Microsoft SharePoint Foundation (affected versions not specified)
Microsoft SharePoint Enterprise Server (affected versions not specified)
Description
A cross-site scripting issue exists due to improper sanitization of specially crafted web requests. This could allow an authenticated attacker to perform cross-site scripting attacks, potentially enabling them to read unauthorized content, use the victim's identity to take actions on the SharePoint site, and inject malicious content into the user's browser.
Recommendations
For Microsoft SharePoint Server, consider restricting access to sensitive areas of the site until a fix is available.
For Microsoft SharePoint Foundation, restrict the ability to send specially crafted requests to the server as a temporary mitigation measure.
For Microsoft SharePoint Enterprise Server, as a workaround, limit the permissions of users who could potentially exploit this issue.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
