1DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was found in code-projects Voting System 1.0. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file /admin/voters_add.php. The manipulation of the argument Firstname/Lastname/Platform results in cross site scripting. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in code-projects Voting System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious scripts via the Firstname, Lastname, or Platform parameters in /admin/voters_add.php, requiring user interaction to trigger payload execution. The vulnerability has a low CVSS score (2.1) due to UI requirement, but publicly available exploit code exists and the attack requires no authentication or special configuration.
Technical ContextAI
This is a reflected or stored XSS vulnerability (CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) in a PHP-based voting application. The vulnerable endpoint /admin/voters_add.php fails to properly sanitize or encode user-supplied input in the Firstname, Lastname, and Platform parameters before rendering them in HTML output. Attackers can inject JavaScript payloads that execute in victims' browsers when the page is viewed, potentially stealing session cookies, admin credentials, or performing unauthorized actions within the application context.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to a patched version of code-projects Voting System if available from the vendor; consult code-projects.org or the GitHub repository for the latest release. If no patched version is available, implement input validation and output encoding by using PHP htmlspecialchars() or htmlentities() functions on all user inputs (Firstname, Lastname, Platform) before rendering them in HTML context, and implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to block inline script execution. Additionally, restrict administrative access to /admin/voters_add.php to trusted IP ranges and require strong authentication to minimize the attack surface, though these do not address the root cause.
