| Title | sambitraj STUDENT-MANAGEMENT-SYSTEM 1.0 Stored Cross-Site Scripting |
|---|
| Description | The backend dashboards (admin, student, teacher) display detailed information about students and teachers by directly echoing database values without any HTML entity encoding. A typical example from `admin_dashboard.php`:
```php
<input type="text" id="btn1" value="<?php echo $row['name']?>" disabled>
```
Because $row['name'] is output as‑is inside an HTML attribute, an attacker who previously inserted a malicious payload (e.g., via Vulnerability #2 – Unauthorised Data Insertion) into the name field can break out of the attribute and inject arbitrary JavaScript. When an administrator or other user views the dashboard, the injected script executes in their browser. |
