Summary

Oracle Mojarra 2.2.x before 2.2.6 and 2.1.x before 2.1.28 does not perform appropriate encoding when a (1) <h:outputText> tag or (2) EL expression is used after a scriptor style block, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via application-specific vectors.

Patch / fix

  • maven org.glassfish:javax.faces 2.1.28, 2.2.6
  • mojarra Debian 14, Debian 13, Debian 12 2.2.8-1
