Apache Syncope 3.0.x XSS via incomplete HTML tags in Console & Enduser
CVE-2024-45031 Published on October 24, 2024

Apache Syncope: Stored XSS in Console and Enduser
When editing objects in the Syncope Console, incomplete HTML tags could be used to bypass HTML sanitization. This made it possible to inject stored XSS payloads which would trigger for other users during ordinary usage of the application. XSS payloads could also be injected in Syncope Enduser when editing Personal Information or User Requests: such payloads would trigger for administrators in Syncope Console, thus enabling session hijacking. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.0.9, which fixes this issue.
