Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was determined in itsourcecode Online Hotel Management System 1.0. This affects an unknown part of the file /admin/mod_users/controller.php?action=edit of the component POST Request Handler. This manipulation of the argument Name causes cross site scripting. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.
AnalysisAI
Cross-site scripting in itsourcecode Online Hotel Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious JavaScript via the Name argument in a POST request to /admin/mod_users/controller.php?action=edit. The vulnerability requires a victim to interact with the crafted content (CVSS 4.0 UI:P), limiting its reach but not eliminating risk against administrative users. A publicly disclosed proof-of-concept exploit exists per VulDB submission 843586, though no public exploit identified at time of analysis in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
The affected application is a PHP-based hotel management system distributed by itsourcecode, a source code tutorial platform. The vulnerable endpoint is /admin/mod_users/controller.php?action=edit, which handles POST requests for user record modification within the admin module. CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) describes the root cause: the Name parameter received via POST is not properly sanitized or output-encoded before being rendered in the HTTP response. This permits injection of arbitrary HTML or JavaScript that executes in the context of a victim's browser session. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P) indicates the attack is network-reachable, requires no special conditions, needs no prior authentication from the attacker's perspective, but does require a user to interact with the malicious content.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the fix version is not independently confirmed from the available references. The primary remediation is to apply proper output encoding to the Name parameter before rendering it in HTML context - specifically using htmlspecialchars() or equivalent PHP escaping functions on all user-supplied data rendered in the admin view. As a compensating control, restrict access to the /admin/ directory to trusted IP ranges via web server configuration (e.g., Apache .htaccess Allow/Deny directives or nginx allow/deny blocks), which limits the attacker's ability to submit or trigger payloads. Additionally, implementing a Content Security Policy (CSP) header that disallows inline scripts (script-src 'self') would significantly reduce the impact of any surviving XSS. Developers should review https://vuldb.com/vuln/374564 and the associated GitHub issue at https://github.com/Hh-176/CVE/issues/7 for technical detail. The trade-off of IP restriction is reduced accessibility for remote administrators.
