The Script.aculo.us framework exchanges data using JavaScript Object
Notation (JSON) without an associated protection scheme, which allows
remote attackers to obtain the data via a web page that retrieves the data
through a URL in the SRC attribute of a SCRIPT element and captures the
data using other JavaScript code, aka “JavaScript Hijacking.”

Notes

Author Note
jdstrand This CVE is general class of attacks called Javascript Hijacking. It’s impact is largely dependent on how the developer a) uses the library, b) configures the library and c) interacts with the server. While the paper recommends defeating hijacking via both of two means, the CVE states that Scriptaculous does not have “an associated protection scheme”. Scriptaculous can be configured to use POST instead of GET, and with server side scripting (as proposed in the paper), can thwart the attack.
