LXR Cross Referencer Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

LXR Cross Referencer is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. An attacker may leverage these issues 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.

Mitigation:

To mitigate these vulnerabilities, it is recommended to sanitize and validate user-supplied data before using it in the application. Implementing proper input validation and output encoding techniques can help prevent XSS attacks.
