| Name | CVE-2007-2383 |
| Description | The Prototype (prototypejs) framework before 1.5.1 RC3 exchanges data using JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) without an associated protection scheme, which allows remote attackers to obtain the data via a web page that retrieves the data through a URL in the SRC attribute of a SCRIPT element and captures the data using other JavaScript code, aka "JavaScript Hijacking." |

This allows to steal data from affected websites. Therefore web applications should
only be considered vunerabile if they process confidential data.
The frameworks should be fixed in any case.
