Reflected XSS via unneutralized search keyword
Published May 28, 2025 · Updated May 28, 2025
Reflected XSS in joudiSoft Real Easy Store allows remote attackers to run JavaScript in a user's browser through a malicious search URL. The search handler at /index.php?a=search reflects the attacker-controlled keyword parameter without neutralizing executable browser content. Exploitation requires a user to open the crafted URL; the script then runs in the store origin and can read session-accessible data or perform actions as that user.
