Browser script execution via unencoded sname output
Published Mar 23, 2026 · Updated Mar 23, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Exam Form Submission 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute script in a victim's browser through sname. The /admin/update_s2.php handler returns the sname parameter to an HTML response without encoding or filtering, so supplied markup is interpreted as script. The published proof of concept claims no login is required, while the CNA assessment requires high privileges and victim interaction.
