Description

The HTML Manager Interface in Apache Tomcat contains multiple flaws that allow a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate certain unspecified input related to the display-name tag before returning it to the user. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
