Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities in GoAhead WebServer
The GoAhead WebServer is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of a victim user, potentially leading to the theft of authentication credentials and other attacks.
Mitigation:
To mitigate these vulnerabilities, it is recommended to sanitize and validate user-supplied input before using it in dynamic web content. Regularly updating to the latest version of GoAhead WebServer is also advised.
