Technical details
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. An attacker with high privileges (PR:H) can exploit this over the network by tricking a user into interacting with a malicious link or page (UI:R). Successful exploitation allows the attacker to execute arbitrary script in the context of the user's browser, facilitating spoofing or limited information disclosure. The vulnerability affects multiple versions of Windows and Windows Server, and Microsoft has released security updates to address the issue.
