CVE-2025-3825Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Stored script execution via unencoded category input

Published Apr 20, 2025 · Updated Apr 21, 2025

Stored cross-site scripting in SourceCodester Web-based Pharmacy Product Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute script. The add-category.php form returns attacker-controlled txtcategory_name content in generated HTML without output encoding, causing a browser to interpret crafted markup as script. Access requires login, and exploitation requires another user to view the affected content; execution is confined to that user's browser context.
