Stored script execution via unsanitized system settings
Published Aug 15, 2026 · Updated Aug 15, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in SourceCodester Online Book Store System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to run script in another user's browser. Public materials identify the System Settings handler at /admin/index.php?page=site_settings as the storage and rendering locus, but do not disclose the exact parameter or output sink. Exploitation requires administrative access and another user to render the persisted payload; the reported consequence is limited to browser-side content modification.
