CVE-2022-3672Network attack vector

Cross-site scripting via name and shortname inputs

Published Oct 26, 2022 · Updated Apr 15, 2025

Cross-site scripting in SourceCodester Sanitization Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to inject script via name or shortname. SystemSettings.php processes attacker-controlled name and shortname values, but the published record does not disclose the precise output sink or missing neutralization step. A victim must render the affected content for the script to execute in the victim's browser; the CNA rates exploitation as requiring low privileges and user interaction.
