Problem Note 63306: Use of the SAS/GRAPH® Java device driver or the Java-based graph macros (such as the DS2TREE macro) might result in a security vulnerability issue
Severity: Medium
Description: Use of the SAS/GRAPH Java device driver or any of the Java-based graph macros (such as the DS2TREE macro) might result in a security vulnerability issue. This issue can occur due to the resulting HTML output that attempts to load a JavaScript file via http://www.java.com.
Potential Impact: A compromise of the third-party JavaScript server and the injection of malicious JavaScript into the original JavaScript.
To circumvent the issue when you use the Java device driver, switch to a different device driver (such as PNG, ACTIVEX, or JAVAIMG).
