Script execution via unneutralized HTML parameters
Published Feb 19, 2025 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Cross-site scripting in PHPJabbers Event Booking Calendar 4.0 allows remote attackers to run script through crafted parameter values. The application fails to neutralize the name, plugin_sms_api_key, plugin_sms_country_code, and title values before placing them in generated HTML. Exploitation requires a user to render the crafted content, enabling script execution in that user’s browser context without interrupting the service.
