Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability manifests in the module engagement handler of Axis2's admin console where user-controlled 'modules' parameter is reflected unsanitized. The exploit URL structure and third-party advisories indicate the XSS occurs in the engagingglobally endpoint processing, which maps to a servlet's doGet method handling HTTP parameters. While no direct patch is shown, the universal XSS mitigation pattern requires adding output encoding at the response generation point in this handler.
