Abstract
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Users of Websense Data Security that are reviewing DLP incidents can be
attacked via Cross-Site Scripting. This issue can be exploited using a
specially crafted email, or by sending a specially crafted HTTP request
through the Websense proxy. The attacker-supplied code can perform a
wide variety of attacks, such as stealing session tokens, login
credentials, performing arbitrary actions as victims, or logging
victims' keystrokes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tested versions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This issue was discovered on Websense Triton v7.8.3 and Websense
appliance modules V-Series v7.7. Other versions may be affected as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fix
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Websense created a workaround to address this issue. System -> Reporting
-> Secure forensics with plain-text
A permanent fix will be included in Websense TRITON APX version 8.1,
scheduled to be release in August, 2015.
