Stored XSS via unrestricted HTML file upload
Published Jun 9, 2025 · Updated Jun 9, 2025
Stored XSS in jsnjfz WebStack-Guns 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute browser scripts through its file-upload component. UserMgrController.java accepts an .html filename whose multipart content type claims image/png, stores its script-bearing body, and serves it to browsers without neutralization. Exploitation requires low-privilege upload access and a victim to open the stored file, enabling attacker-controlled script execution in that browser.
