Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2012-1857 is a cross-site scripting issue in the Enterprise Portal component of Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. A crafted URL could cause the portal to run attacker-supplied script or HTML in a user's browser. Business impact depends on whether the portal remains deployed and who can access it. Exposure is likely limited to organizations that still run Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Enterprise Portal. Internet-facing, partner-facing, or broadly accessible portal deployments carry more practical risk than isolated internal systems. Treat this as a legacy application exposure review item. It is not flagged as actively exploited in the supplied evidence, but XSS in an enterprise portal can affect trusted user sessions if the system remains accessible. Mitigation focus: Identify any Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Enterprise Portal deployments.; Review Microsoft MS12-040 for the vendor-provided security update and guidance.; Apply applicable vendor updates in a tested maintenance window..
