Discussion
RankEm 'rankup.asp' Cookie Manipulation and Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
RankEm is prone to a cookie-manipulation vulnerability and a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.
An attacker may leverage these issues to masquerade as another user and to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.
