Summary
Spring Web Flow JS RemotingHandler renders non-HTML Response as HTML
Details

Spring Web Flow's JavaScript RemotingHandler renders the body of an error response as HTML even when the response is not "text/html", which can result in a scripting attack in the user's browser if the error response from the server contains error details with input reflected from an attacker.

Affected versions: Spring Web Flow 4.0.0; 3.0.0 through 3.0.1; 2.5.0 through 2.5.1.
