DescriptionCVE.org

A Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in SourceCodester Inventory System 1.0 in in the view_purchase.php file via the "limit" parameter. The application fails to sanitize the input, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL.

AnalysisAI

Reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) in SourceCodester Inventory System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript or HTML through an unsanitized 'limit' parameter in the view_purchase.php file. The vulnerability affects unauthenticated users who click a malicious link, enabling session hijacking, credential theft, or malware distribution. Publicly available exploit code exists, elevating practical exploitation risk despite the absence of CVSS scoring data.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is a Reflected XSS flaw rooted in improper input validation/output encoding (CWE category for cross-site scripting). SourceCodester Inventory System 1.0 is a PHP-based web application that processes the 'limit' parameter in view_purchase.php without sanitizing or encoding user-supplied input before rendering it in HTTP responses. This allows an attacker to break out of the intended context and inject malicious script tags or event handlers. The reflected nature means the payload must be delivered via a crafted URL (GET request), making it suitable for phishing or watering-hole attacks. No specific CPE string was provided in the source data, but the affected product is SourceCodester Inventory System version 1.0.

RemediationAI

Immediate action: upgrade SourceCodester Inventory System to the latest available version if a patch has been released by the vendor (verify at the SourceCodester website or official repository). If no patched version is available, apply input validation and output encoding: whitelist the 'limit' parameter to accept only numeric values, and use context-appropriate HTML entity encoding (e.g., htmlspecialchars() in PHP with ENT_QUOTES flag) before echoing user input in HTML context. As a temporary mitigation, implement a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to block requests containing common XSS payloads in the 'limit' parameter, enforce Content-Security-Policy (CSP) headers to restrict script execution, and ensure all cookies handling sensitive data are marked with HTTPOnly and Secure flags. The public exploit code available on GitHub (https://github.com/meifukun/Web-Security-PoCs/blob/main/Inventory-System/XSS-ViewPurchase-limit.md) should be reviewed to understand the exact injection vector for better validation rules.
