CVE-2018-1229: Pivotal Spring Batch Admin, all versions, contains a stored XSS vulnerability in the file upload feature.

Pivotal Spring Batch Admin, all versions, contains a stored XSS vulnerability in the file upload feature. An unauthenticated malicious user with network access to Spring Batch Admin could store an arbitrary web script that would be executed by other users. This issue has not been patched because Spring Batch Admin has reached end of life.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Spring Batch Admin has a stored cross-site scripting flaw in its file upload feature. Someone who can reach the application over the network, without logging in, could save script content that later runs in another user's browser. The product is end of life and the source bundle says this issue was not patched. Exposure is most likely where legacy Spring Batch Admin remains deployed, especially if reachable by untrusted networks. Because all versions are listed affected and no patch is identified, vulnerability management should treat any live instance as suspect until replaced or isolated. Treat internet or broadly reachable instances as urgent legacy-risk cleanup. The main decision is not patch timing, but whether the organization can isolate, replace, or decommission the affected application quickly. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire Spring Batch Admin deployments because the product is end of life.; Restrict network access to trusted administrative networks only.; Check the vendor advisory for any updated migration or compensating-control guidance..

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
