Xss

no-direct-response-writer

Detected a request with potential user-input going into a OutputStream or Writer object. This bypasses any view or template environments, including HTML escaping, which may expose this application to cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. Consider using a view technology such as JavaServer Faces (JSFs) which automatically escapes HTML views.
Likelihood: HIGH
Confidence: MEDIUM

- CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (‘Cross-site Scripting’)

- A03:2021 - Injection
