| Title | code-projects Human Resource Integrated System published August 1, 2025 Cross Site Scripting |
|---|
| Description | Summary
The vulnerability exists in the insert-and-view component due to improper input validation and output encoding.
Root Cause
The application fails to properly sanitize and encode user-controlled input before rendering it to the client-side in action.php. Specifically, user input from $_POST['content'] is directly output via PHP's echo statement without encoding.
Example vulnerable code snippet:
echo $row['msg'];
Reproduction
Navigate to the comment submission form.
Submit the following malicious payload:
<script>alert('XSS')</script>
The payload will be executed in the browser, demonstrating a successful XSS attack.
Impact
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the affected website, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or further client-side exploitation. |
