Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities in BackupPC
BackupPC is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. An attacker may leverage these issues 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.
Mitigation:
To mitigate these vulnerabilities, it is recommended to sanitize user-supplied data before using it in dynamic web content. Additionally, implementing a content security policy (CSP) can help prevent cross-site scripting attacks.
