Authenticated XSS via unsanitized Name

Published Oct 17, 2022 · Updated Nov 20, 2024

Cross-site scripting in SourceCodester Simple Cold Storage Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts via the Name field. The Add New Storage Handler accepts Name input without effective output neutralization, allowing injected script content to reach rendered pages. Exploitation requires a high-privilege authenticated account and victim interaction; the demonstrated consequence is client-side integrity impact without direct confidentiality or availability loss.
