Banner Student Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Banner Student is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input data. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data does not include malicious code.
