multimedia macro allows execution of arbitrary scripts

XMLWordPrintable

      The

      {multimedia} macro in confluence embeds a swf without the 'allowScriptAccess' attribute set to 'none'. This allows the embedded (user submitted) swf to execute arbitrary javascript on the page, constituting an XSS vulnerability. The {multimedia}

      tag is bundled in with the base product and not an optional macro, so steps may need to be taken by Atlassian to fix this issue if there isn't a configuration setting anywhere.
