Gastebuch Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Gastebuch is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input before including it in dynamically generated HTML content. An attacker may leverage this issue to have arbitrary script code executed in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may facilitate the theft of cookie-based authentication credentials as well as other attacks.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data does not include malicious HTML or script code.
