Browser script execution via unneutralized title parameter

Published Dec 1, 2022 · Updated Apr 25, 2025

Reflected XSS in Axiell Iguana before 4.5.02 allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript in a victim's browser via a crafted URL. The twitter.php endpoint reflects its title parameter into the generated page without neutralizing script markup. Exploitation requires a victim to open the crafted URL; the script then runs in the vulnerable site's browser context, enabling page-data access or modification.
