Browser script execution via unencoded query parameter
Published May 11, 2026 · Updated May 11, 2026
Reflected XSS in WeGIA before 3.7.0 allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript in a user's browser through a crafted link. The lista_arquivos_etapa.php page writes the id_processo query value into a hidden input's value attribute without HTML encoding. Execution requires a user to open the crafted URL and runs in that user's session, enabling session data theft or actions with that user's privileges.
