Reflected XSS via unencoded search query
Published Sep 12, 2025 · Updated Sep 15, 2025
Reflected XSS in Unmark 1.9.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject script through a crafted q parameter in a search URL. The search form places the q value into an HTML input attribute without neutralizing attribute-breaking markup, allowing the supplied script to enter the response. Exploitation requires a victim to open the crafted URL, after which the script executes in the victim's browser and can alter displayed application content.
