Stored script execution via unencoded category name
Published Feb 10, 2023 · Updated Mar 24, 2025
Stored XSS in Inventory Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts through a crafted Categories Name. The category-fetch endpoint places the stored database value directly into JSON table data without HTML encoding. Administrative access is required to add the category, and the script runs in a viewing user's browser context with limited data-reading and modification impact.
