Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in SimpleGallery
SimpleGallery is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.Exploiting this issue allows attackers to execute arbitrary HTML or script code in a user's browser session in the context of an affected site. This may 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 the application. Input validation and output encoding techniques can be employed to prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. Additionally, implementing a Content Security Policy (CSP) can help mitigate this vulnerability.
