Hi,
     I wonder if you can elaborate on what this does:

"dspace-url/handle/%3Cscript%3Ealert%281%29%3C/script%3E"

Thanks,
Sue

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace and Cross-site scripting/SQL Injection attack 
vulnerabilities?

Hi Sue,

Dspace 1.4.x and earlier was vulnerable to XSS and CSRF because DSpace prints 
handle bad requests and don't clean it before...
With XSS you can stole the session cookie from the user that clicks the link, 
and with CSRF(Cross site request foreign) you can execute requests with 
privileges from the user that clicks the link
Normally, if a site was vulnerable to XSS it was vulnerable to CSRF too.

It's possible that any DSpace 1.5.x was vulnerable too.

You can try:
dspace-url/handle/%3Cscript%3Ealert%281%29%3C/script%3E


However I believe that is not vulnerable to SQL Injection.

Best,
