> We are currently using "axis2-transport-http-1.5.6" and the veracode analysis  found a bug in this class:
> 1. ListingAgent.java (Version 1.5.6 in the line 256 and 292) and (Version 1.6.2 in the line 252 and 288)
> Type: Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS)
> Description:
> This call contains a cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw. The application populates the HTTP response with user-supplied
> input, allowing an attacker to embed malicious content, such as Javascript code, which will be executed in the context
> of the victim's browser. XSS vulnerabilities are commonly exploited to steal or manipulate cookies, modify presentation
> of content, and compromise confidential information, with new attack vectors being discovered on a regular basis.
> is this a false positive?
> thanks.
