|---|
| Описание | The affected components are the PHP login and dashboard pages that start sessions without configuring secure cookie attributes. The login pages call `session_start()` and issue a PHP session cookie:
```php
session_start();
...
$_SESSION['name'] = $row['name'];
$_SESSION['email'] = $row['email'];
```
Runtime responses set `PHPSESSID` without `HttpOnly`:
```http
Set-Cookie: PHPSESSID=0klqsok4qjcgftt0b2iivhtrkj; path=/
```
Because the cookie is readable from JavaScript, any XSS in the application can read and exfiltrate the session identifier. This increases the impact of the existing stored XSS issue by allowing direct session theft. |
