Summary
WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, WSO2 Identity Server, WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 Open Banking AM and WSO2 Open Banking IAM are affected. The Authentication Endpoint accepts unencoded user input (CWE-79), letting a remote attacker inject scripts. Scripts run when a user opens a crafted request, enabling redirects, page changes or browser data theft. Session hijacking is not possible because session cookies use httpOnly.

Description from the CNA
The Authentication Endpoint accepts user-supplied input without sufficient encoding, allowing for the injection of malicious JavaScript payloads. This vulnerability can be triggered by submitting crafted input to the Authentication Endpoint. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to redirect the user's browser to a malicious website, modify the web page's user interface, or extract sensitive information from the browser. However, due to the `httpOnly` flag on session-related cookies, session hijacking is not possible.
