Until a fix is available, restrict access to trusted users and minimize exposure to potentially malicious provider-supplied HTML content. Monitor IBM's official channels for updates and apply patches once released.

Description

IBM API Connect versions 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw allows a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the user's browser because HTML content supplied by a provider is not properly sanitized before display.
