How to fix?

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nomad package and not the nomad package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.16 relevant fixed versions and status.

XSS exists in the HAPI FHIR testpage overlay module of the HAPI FHIR library before 3.8.0. The attack involves unsanitized HTTP parameters being output in a form page, allowing attackers to leak cookies and other sensitive information from ca/uhn/fhir/to/BaseController.java via a specially crafted URL. (This module is not generally used in production systems so the attack surface is expected to be low, but affected systems are recommended to upgrade immediately.)
