Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2012-1245 is an OSQA cross-site scripting issue. A crafted URI can be handled unsafely by the cleanup_urls function, allowing attacker-supplied script or HTML to appear in a user’s browser. This can support session theft, fraudulent actions, or content manipulation in affected OSQA deployments. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running OSQA versions before changeset 1234, including 0.9.0 Beta 3 and earlier. Internet-facing OSQA forums are more exposed because remote users may submit or influence content processed by cleanup_urls. Treat this as a targeted legacy-web-app remediation item. It is not currently evidenced as exploited in the provided sources, but affected public OSQA sites could expose users and administrators to browser-session compromise. Mitigation focus: Upgrade OSQA to changeset 1234 or later where applicable.; Review OSQA and JVN guidance for vendor-specific remediation details.; Limit untrusted content submission until vulnerable instances are fixed..
