Description

A flaw was found in xmldom, a JavaScript XML DOM parser. The Element.setAttribute() function does not properly validate attribute names, allowing a remote attacker to inject specially crafted attribute names. This can lead to the injection of additional attributes, including event handlers, into browser-consumed output. Consequently, a remote attacker could achieve client-side script execution, such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), in the context of the affected application.
