MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
DBHcms version 1.2.0
Description
The issue is related to a stored XSS vulnerability due to the lack of proper input sanitization, specifically the absence of the htmlspecialchars function for the 'Name' field in dbhcmstypes.php. This allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to exploit the vulnerability, potentially leading to the hijacking of other users' sessions.
Recommendations
For DBHcms version 1.2.0, consider applying proper input validation and sanitization, such as using the htmlspecialchars function for the
Name field in dbhcmstypes.php to prevent XSS attacks. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the vulnerable types.php file until a proper fix is applied. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
