CVE-2019-15086
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedAn issue was discovered in PRiSE adAS 1.7.0. The newentityID parameter is not properly escaped, leading to a reflected XSS in the error message.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidencePRiSE adAS 1.7.0 contains a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The newentityID parameter is not properly escaped before being displayed in error messages, allowing an attacker to inject malicious HTML or JavaScript that executes in the victim's browser.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm PRiSE adAS versionLocate the installed version of PRiSE adAS by checking the application documentation, about page, or installation files. Common locations include the product banner, version file in the installation directory, or the login page footer.Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.7.0
-
Identify web interface accessibilityDetermine if the PRiSE adAS web interface is accessible by navigating to the application's URL in a browser or using a tool like curl to make an HTTP request.Affected if The web interface is accessible and responds to requests
-
Test newentityID parameter reflectionSubmit a request to the application's endpoint that processes the newentityID parameter with a test payload such as <script>alert(1)</script> and observe whether this payload is reflected unescaped in the response error message.Affected if The newentityID parameter value is reflected in the response without HTML encoding or escaping, displaying the raw script tags
If running PRiSE adAS version 1.7.0 with an accessible web interface where the newentityID parameter reflects unescaped input in error messages, the environment is affected by this reflected XSS vulnerability.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement proper output encoding/escaping for the newentityID parameter before rendering it in error messages, and validate input to reject dangerous characters.
