Account takeover via stored Last Name script
Published Mar 28, 2024 · Updated Apr 10, 2025
Stored XSS in SourceCodester Insurance Management System 1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to run script in another user’s browser. The new-account POST handler stores the lname parameter without neutralizing HTML and later renders it in the user-list view, where an event-handler payload executes. Account creation and a later visit by a staff member or administrator are required; the script runs in that viewer’s session and can read accessible cookies.
