Cross-site scripting via unescaped speed parameter
Published Jan 7, 2026 · Updated Jan 7, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Yahei-PHP Prober 0.4.7 allows remote attackers to execute HTML in users' browsers via a crafted request. The prober.php endpoint places the speed GET parameter into its HTML response without neutralizing markup, making a crafted value active page content. No authentication is required, but a user must open the attacker-crafted request; execution is confined to that browser session.
