CVE-2024-27140: Apache Archiva: reflected XSS

[Arnout Engelen <engelen () apache org>]

Severity: moderate

Affected versions:

- Apache Archiva 2.0.0 or later

Description:

** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED **

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Apache Archiva.

This issue affects Apache Archiva: from 2.0.0.

As this project is retired, we do not plan to release a version that fixes this issue. Users are recommended to find an 
alternative or restrict access to the instance to trusted users. Alternatively, you could configure a HTTP proxy in 
front of your Archiva instance to only forward requests that do not have malicious characters in the URL.

NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
