IBM BladeCenter Advanced Management Module contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the username parameter upon submission to the login script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server. The stored script is executed when a logged in user browses the device log pages.

Upgrade to firmware version 1.42U or higher, as it has been reported to fix this vulnerability. An upgrade is required as there are no known workarounds, other than restricting access to the login page of AMM web management interface.
