Technical details

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability (CWE-79) exists in Microsoft SharePoint due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. An authenticated attacker with low privileges can exploit this over the network by convincing a victim to interact with a specially crafted link or page. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to execute arbitrary script in the context of the victim's browser, enabling spoofing or unauthorized data access. The vulnerability affects SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016, SharePoint Server 2019, and SharePoint Server Subscription Edition; patches are available through Microsoft's standard update channels.
