Cisco Unified Operations Manager contains multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input to certain scripts that make up the affected application. An unauthenticated, remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to view a malicious link. If successful, the attacker could conduct cross-site scripting attacks and gain access to sensitive information.
Exploit code is available.
