CVE-2025-4760 · GHSA-cmjc-qp7j-xgwr
- Affected
- Maven org.wso2.carbon.apimgt:org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.rest.api.publisher.v1 < 9.31.117
- Fixed in
- 9.31.117· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- An authenticated stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in WSO2 API Manager components (carbon-apimgt) due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input during API document upload in the Publisher portal. A user with publisher privileges can upload a crafted API document whose contents are later rendered in the UI for other users, leading to attacker-controlled script execution. Likely outcomes include redirection to malicious sites, unauthorized UI modifications, or exfiltration of data accessible to the browser; session hijacking is mitigated by the use of HttpOnly session cookies. To remediate, update to version 9.31.117 or above.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 9.31.117 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
