Authenticated browser script execution via stored case name
Published Aug 12, 2024 · Updated Aug 13, 2024
Stored XSS in SourceCodester Kortex Lite Advocate Office Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute browser scripts. The case-registration path stores the unvalidated cname value in register_case.php, and case_report.php later emits it into dynamic content without output encoding. A valid account can submit a crafted case name; the script runs when another user opens the case report, enabling actions in that user's browser session.
