Title
Reflected Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities (XSS) in ClearPass Policy Manager Web-Based Management Interface
Summary
Vulnerabilities within the web-based management interface of ClearPass Policy Manager could allow a remote attacker to conduct a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the interface. A successful exploit allows an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in a victim's browser in the context of the affected interface.
