Discussion
Sockso 'username' Field HTML Injection Vulnerability
Sockso is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to sanitize user-supplied input.
Attacker-supplied HTML or JavaScript code could run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
Sockso 1.5 and prior are vulnerable.
