Product Description:
Openfire is a real time collaboration (RTC) server licensed under the
Open Source GPL. It uses the only widely adopted open protocol for
instant messaging, XMPP (also called Jabber). Openfire is incredibly
easy to setup and administer, but offers rock-solid security and
performance.

Vulnerability Details:
User can insert HTML or execute arbitrary JavaScript code within the
vulnerable application. The vulnerabilities arise due to insufficient
input validation in multiple input fields throughout the application.
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could result in, but
not limited to, compromise of the application, theft of cookie-based
authentication credentials, arbitrary page redirection, disclosure or
modification of sensitive data and phishing attacks.

Since the vulnerabilities exist in the administrative module, a
successful attack could cause a complete compromise of the entire
application. An attacker can send a link with the exploit to an
administrator whose access could compromise the application.

you will be greeted with multiple alert boxes. Click on Group Summary
from the left pane or navigate to
http://localhost:9090/group-summary.jsp to be greeted again by multiple
