LOW 2.4

DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in itsourcecode University Management System 1.0. Affected is an unknown function of the file /add_result.php. Executing a manipulation of the argument vr can lead to cross site scripting. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used.

AnalysisAI

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in itsourcecode University Management System version 1.0, specifically in the /add_result.php file where the 'vr' parameter is not properly sanitized. An authenticated attacker with high privileges can inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of other users' browsers, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized actions within the application. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available on GitHub, and while the CVSS score is low (2.4), the vulnerability is actively documented in security databases and poses a real risk in educational environments.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is a Reflected or Stored Cross-Site Scripting (CWE-79) flaw in a PHP-based web application. The University Management System processes user input from the 'vr' parameter in /add_result.php without adequate output encoding or input validation, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript code. The affected product is identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:itsourcecode:university_management_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and is built on PHP, a server-side scripting language commonly used in educational management platforms. This represents a classic failure to implement proper encoding mechanisms (such as HTML entity encoding) before rendering user-supplied data in web responses.

RemediationAI

The primary remediation is to contact itsourcecode for an updated version of the University Management System or a security patch addressing the XSS vulnerability in /add_result.php. Until an official patch is available, implement compensating controls by applying strict input validation and output encoding to the 'vr' parameter using PHP functions such as htmlspecialchars() or htmlentities() to prevent XSS injection. Additionally, enforce Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict script execution, implement HTTP-only and Secure flags on session cookies to mitigate session hijacking, and restrict access to /add_result.php to only authorized administrative users via firewall rules or application-level access controls. A Web Application Firewall (WAF) with XSS detection rules can provide temporary protection while awaiting vendor patches.
