Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in Php-Stats
Php-Stats is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. 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:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize and validate all user-supplied input before using it in the application. Implementing a secure coding practice and using output encoding techniques can also help prevent cross-site scripting attacks.
