Session-cookie theft via approved testimonial script
Published Jun 2, 2025 · Updated Jun 2, 2025
Stored XSS in Phoenix Cart 1.0.9.9 through 1.1.0.2 allows remote authenticated users to steal session cookies via testimonials. The approval flow stores testimonial descriptions without neutralizing attacker-controlled JavaScript, then renders approved text while cookies remain readable through document.cookie. A shop owner must approve the testimonial and a visitor must activate the injected link; exposed cookies can enable account takeover.
