Browser script execution via unneutralized address parameter

Published Aug 26, 2025 · Updated Aug 26, 2025

Cross-site scripting in 1000Projects Online Student Project Report Submission and Evaluation System 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute script. The /admin/add_student.php handler places the attacker-controlled address parameter into generated HTML without adequate neutralization; the affected function is not publicly identified. Exploitation is unauthenticated over the network but requires victim interaction with the resulting page, enabling attacker-controlled content in that browser context.
