Put it in a hidden span and query for it. e.g:

<span hidden id="successMessage">
  <%= request.getAttribute("sm")%>
</span>

and make sure you got your HTML escaping figured out!

Then in javascript:

const msg = document.getElementById("successMessage").textContent;

There are many others, but given that you're using JSP, it sounds like the dated stuff is what you're looking for.
