Description
On Apache JSPWiki, up to version 2.11.0.M4, a carefully crafted plugin link invocation could trigger an XSS vulnerability on Apache JSPWiki, related to InfoContent.jsp, which could allow the attacker to execute javascript in the victim's browser and get some sensitive information about the victim.
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.apache.jspwiki:jspwiki-war. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update org.apache.jspwiki:jspwiki-war to 2.11.0.M5 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7qmg-qg53-mrp8 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-7qmg-qg53-mrp8 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-7qmg-qg53-mrp8. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
