Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
pictshare version 1.5
Description:
The issue is related to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the "api/info.php" endpoint. The exit function will terminate the script and print a message that includes the value of the
hash variable from the $ REQUEST array. This suggests that an attacker could potentially inject malicious scripts by manipulating the hash parameter.Recommendations:
For pictshare version 1.5, consider disabling the "api/info.php" endpoint until a patch is available to prevent exploitation of the XSS vulnerability. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to this endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the
hash parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.Exploitability
