[security vulnerability] Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities
Recently, our team found a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability The vulnerability logic is present in the file:
https://github.com/ivanlanin/kateglo/blob/master/index.php#L121
The
echo
directly outputs the parameter $_GET['phrase']
without any sanitization. This makes it susceptible to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. As a result, attackers can exploit this vulnerability by injecting malicious html code with $_GET['phrase']
. To fix this vulnerability, we recommend that developers implement properly sanitization (e.g., htmlspecialchars()
) for user input before displaying it on the webpage.
