Multiple vulnerabilities were identified in Oracle Application Server (OracleAS) Discussion Forum Portlet, which could be exploited by attackers execute arbitrary scripting code or disclose the source code of arbitrary scripts.
The first flaw is due to an input validation error when processing a specially crafted "RowKeyValue" parameter, which may be exploited by attackers to cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the user's browser in the security context of an affected Web site.
The second vulnerability is due to input validation errors when posting an article, which may be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross site scripting attacks.
The third flaw is due to an error when processing a specially crafted "df_next_page" parameter, which could be exploited by remote attackers to display the source code of Java Server pages instead of an expected HTML response.
