Status: ModifiedLow (3.5)—
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in IBM WebSphere Portal 6.1.0.x through 6.1.0.6 CF27, 6.1.5.x through 6.1.5.3 CF27, 7.0.0.x through 7.0.0.2 CF29, 8.0.0.x before 8.0.0.1 CF15, and 8.5.0 before CF05 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:N/I:P/A:N
- Base score: 3.5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.40%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 72
- Score date: 10/7/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
