Administrator-session script execution via unsanitized modal content
Published Jan 14, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
DOM-based XSS in SimplCommerce 1.0.0-rc allows remote authenticated users to execute script in an administrator's browser. The admin user deletion handler passes the stored user.fullName value directly into a Bootbox modal through jQuery .html() without encoding. Exploitation requires a crafted registered full name and an administrator clicking delete; the injected script then runs in the administrator's SimplCommerce page.
