Discussion

SASHA 'instructors' Parameter HTML-injection vulnerability

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

An attacker may exploit the HTML-injection issue 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, control how the site is displayed, and launch other attacks.

SASHA 0.2.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
