WHID 2007-56: TJMaxx XSS Vulnerability
Date: 23 September 2007
Incident Type: Vulnerability Disclosure
WASC Threat Classification: Cross-site Scripting

A small XSS vulnerably caught RSnake eyes. What makes it different, after all xssed.com lists thousands and thousands of those? What caught RSnames eyes was the vulnerable site. TJMaxx earned the reputation as the company that suffered the biggest security breach ever. You would expect them to be more careful.
