In Gitblit v1.7.1, a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the way repository path names are handled. By injecting a specially crafted path payload an attacker can cause arbitrary JavaScript to execute when a victim views the manipulated URL. This flaw stems from insufficient input sanitization of filename elements.
