CVE-2025-5350· wso2 / api manager· CWE-79
WSO2 - Server Side Request Forgery
WSO2 products contain SSRF and reflected XSS vulnerabilities in the deprecated Try-It feature accessible only to administrative users, caused by improper URL validation and direct content reflection, letting attackers trick admins into executing arbitrary JavaScript and querying internal services.
Impact
Attackers can execute arbitrary JavaScript in admin browsers and perform internal network requests, risking UI manipulation, data exfiltration, and internal service enumeration.
Fix
Remove or secure the deprecated Try-It feature and validate user-supplied URLs properly; update to the latest product versions with fixes.
