Summary Cross-site Scripting By default, Apache CXF creates a `/services` page containing a listing of the available endpoint names and addresses. This webpage is vulnerable to a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack, which allows a malicious actor to inject javascript into the web page. Please note that the attack exploits a feature which is not typically present in modern browsers, which remove dot segments before sending the request. However, Mobile applications may be vulnerable.
