Submit #267691: Project Worlds Visitor Management System unknown reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) at dataset.phpinfo

TitleProject Worlds Visitor Management System unknown reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) at dataset.php
DescriptionThe Visitor Management System developed by Project Worlds is found to have a security vulnerability that exposes it to reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts into the application, potentially leading to unauthorized access, data theft, or other security breaches. ### **Description:** The application fails to properly validate and sanitize the user input received through the URL parameter **`name`**. As a result, an attacker can inject malicious scripts into the page, leading to the execution of arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the victim's browser. ### **Proof of Concept:** To demonstrate the exploit, an attacker can craft a URL with a malicious payload as follows: 1. Access the vulnerable page with the crafted URL: https://localhost/Visitor%20Management%20System%20in%20PHP/datetest.php?name="><script>alert('torada')</script> 2. Upon loading the page, the injected script triggers an alert with the message 'torada', indicating successful exploitation. project link https://projectworlds.in/visitor-management-system-in-php-and-mysql/
