IDevSpot PhpLinkExchange 'Your Email Address' Field HTML Injection Vulnerability

PhpLinkExchange is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would run in the context of the affected website, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user.

PhpLinkExchange 1.02 is affected; other versions may also be vulnerable.
