Stored XSS via unsanitized middlename field
Published Apr 1, 2024 · Updated Aug 27, 2024
Stored XSS in SourceCodester Computer Laboratory Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to run script in an administrator's browser. The Users.registration() method SQL-escapes each POST value but stores the middlename value without HTML sanitization or output encoding. A logged-in user can save the payload; it executes only when an administrator opens the user list, enabling actions in that administrator session.
