Description

According to its self-reported version number, the instance of Apache Tomcat listening on the remote host is 6.x prior to 6.0.30 or 7.x prior to 7.0.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the Tomcat Manager application's 'sessionList.jsp' file. The 'sort' and 'orderby' parameters are not properly sanitized before being returned to the user and can be used to inject arbitrary script into the user's browser.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Also note, in the case of Tomcat 7.x, successful exploitation requires that the cross-site request forgery (CSRF) filter is disabled.
