Browser script execution via unencoded session_id reflection
Published Aug 3, 2023 · Updated Oct 10, 2024
Reflected cross-site scripting in PHPJabbers Availability Booking Calendar 5.0 allows remote attackers to execute script in a user's browser. The pjActionGetBookingForm route in /index.php returns the session_id query value in HTML without sufficient output encoding, allowing injected markup to create a script element. A victim must open the crafted request; execution remains within the affected site's browser origin and can alter page content or access origin-readable data.
