Discussion
VMware vCenter Server Appliance CVE-2014-3797 Unspecified Cross-site Scripting Vulnerability
VMware vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) is prone to an unspecified cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.
An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.
