The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious script codes to the application-side of the affected modules context. The vulnerability is located in the additional information input field of the `my profile > about me` web-application module. Remote attackers with low privileged web-application user accounts are able to inject own script codes to the application-side of the vulnerable modules context. The attack vector is located on the application-side and the request method to inject is POST. The security risk of the filter bypass and persistent validation vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.6. Exploitation of the persistent input validation web vulnerability requires a low privileged web-application user account and low or medium user interaction. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, persistent phishing, persistent external redirects to malicious source and persistent manipulation of affected or connected application modules. Request Method(s): [+] POST Vulnerable Module(s): [+] my profile > about me Vulnerable Input(s): [+] additional information Affected Module(s): [+] my profile Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers with low privileged web-application user account and low user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue. Manual steps to reproduce the vulnerability ... 1. Open my profile > About me > Additional Information 2. Write in the Additional Information input field your own script code payload 3. Save the entry 4. revisit the my profile page 5.
