Summary

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) 6.14.0 and 6.11.0 through 6.11.15 are affected. The web-based management interface does not neutralize input before storing it in pages, so injected script persists (CWE-79). An unauthenticated remote attacker can get an administrative user to trigger stored script that runs in the victim's browser in the context of the interface.
