Cross-Site Scripting in Zikula Application Framework

The Zikula Application Framework is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This vulnerability occurs because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary script code into the browser of an unsuspecting user, potentially leading to cookie theft and other attacks.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize user-supplied input before using it in the application. Additionally, implementing a Content Security Policy (CSP) can help prevent XSS attacks.

Zikula Application Framework is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied 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 allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.

Zikula Application Framework 1.3.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
