Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.java.security.xss.FixXssVulnerability
Artifactorg.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-java-security

Aggregates the cross-site scripting (CWE-79) fixes. Covers Java sources that flow user-controlled values into HTML output sinks (via FixXssVulnerabilityJava, which consumes the same taint spec as FindXssVulnerability), JSP scriptlets that read directly from request parameters or headers, and Thymeleaf templates that use the unescaped th:utext attribute.
