## Description

A DOM based cross-site scripting flaw was found in the JBoss Application
Server 7 before 7.1.0 Beta 1 administration console. A remote attacker
could provide a specially-crafted web page and trick the valid JBoss AS
user, with the administrator privilege, to visit it, which would lead into
the DOM environment modification and arbitrary HTML or web script
execution.
