A vulnerability has been found in SourceCodester Online Food Ordering System 1.0. The affected element is an unknown function of the file /admin/update_category.php of the component Category Update. The manipulation leads to cross site scripting. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
AnalysisAI
Cross-site scripting (XSS) in the Category Update function (/admin/update_category.php) of SourceCodester Online Food Ordering System 1.0 allows an authenticated administrator to inject script payloads that execute in the browser when the manipulated category page is rendered, requiring user interaction. Publicly available exploit code exists, but the high-privilege prerequisite (admin access) and limited integrity-only impact make this a low-severity admin self-XSS scenario; no active exploitation (CISA KEV) is indicated.
