Summary
A vulnerability was found in the WildFly management console. A user may perform cross-site scripting in the deployment system. An attacker (or insider) may execute a malicious payload which could trigger an undesired behavior against the server.

Impact
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the management console.
Untrusted input is rendered as active markup in a victim's browser, which can run script in their session. Typical impact: session or credential theft, and actions taken as the user.
Affected versions
Security releases
Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.
Remediation advice
Fixed in HAL 3.7.7.Final
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM? GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM is a medium-severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in org.jboss.hal:hal-console (maven), affecting versions < 3.7.7.Final. It is fixed in 3.7.7.Final. Untrusted input is rendered as active markup in a victim's browser, which can run script in their session.
- Which versions of org.jboss.hal:hal-console are affected by GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM? org.jboss.hal:hal-console (maven) versions < 3.7.7.Final is affected.
- Is there a fix for GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM? Yes. GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM is fixed in 3.7.7.Final. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
- How do I fix GHSA-64GP-R758-8PFM? Upgrade
