Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in Stocky POS with Inventory Management & HRM 5.0. Affected is an unknown code block of the component Products Module. The manipulation of the argument product name with an unknown input leads to a cross site scripting vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-79.

This is going to have an impact on integrity. CVE summarizes:

Stocky POS with Inventory Management & HRM (ui-lib) version 5.0 is affected by a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability within the Products module available to authenticated users. The vulnerability resides in the product name parameter submitted to the product-creation endpoint via a standard POST form. Due to insufficient input sanitization and output encoding, attackers can inject HTML/JS payloads. The payload is stored and subsequently rendered unsanitized in downstream views, leading to JavaScript execution in other users' browsers when they access the affected product pages. This issue allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of another user, potentially enabling session hijacking, privilege escalation within the application, data exfiltration, or administrative account takeover. The application also lacks a restrictive Content Security Policy (CSP), increasing exploitability.

This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2025-57204 since 08/17/2025. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation needs additional levels of successful authentication. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The MITRE ATT&CK project declares the attack technique as T1059.007.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.
