DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in OpenNMS, which can be exploited
by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.

Certain input passed via the username when logging in to the
application is not properly sanitised in
web/springframework/security/SecurityAuthenticationEventOnmsEventBuilder.java
before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and
script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.

The vulnerability is reported in versions 1.8.16 and 1.9.93. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.8.17 or 1.10.0.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by the vendor.
