>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-938
>             Project: Chemistry
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: opencmis-client
>    Affects Versions: OpenCMIS 0.13.0
>            Reporter: Donald Kwakkel
>
> The method _jspService() in index.jsp sends unvalidated data to a web browser on line 131, which can result in the browser executing malicious code.
> Explanation:
> Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities occur when:
> 1. Data enters a web application through an untrusted source. In the case of Reflected XSS, the untrusted source is typically a web request, while in the case of Persisted (also known as Stored) XSS it is typically a database or other back-end datastore.
> In this case the data enters at getHeader() in ProxyHttpServletRequestWrapper.java at line 41.
> 2. The data is included in dynamic content that is sent to a web user without being validated.
> In this case the data is sent at println() in index.jsp at line 131.
