Javamelody [1] includes a blind XSS vulnerability. An attacker
could provide an specially-crafted "X-Forwarded-For" HTTP header
while visiting a Java web application monitored with Javamelody
that would lead to arbitrary HTML or Javascript execution in the
context of the administrator user monitoring the panel of active
sessions in the application.

The versions affected are the last one 1.46 and all the previous
that include the session monitoring panel feature.

The issue has been reported to the project [2] but whithout
response by now.

The proof of concept may use the own Javamelody online demo:

1. Access the demo site [3] using a fake X-Forwarded-For header
like the following: <script>alert('xss')</script> 2. Then visit the
Javamelody sessions monitoring page at [4] and you should see the
Javascript running.

Can you allocate a CVE identifier for this?

Thank you && Regards,
