This vulnerability in code-projects Online Shoe Store 1.0 arises from improper sanitization of the product_name parameter on the Add Product Page (/admin/admin_feature.php). An attacker can remotely inject malicious scripts leading to cross-site scripting (XSS). The vulnerability is confirmed public with exploit code available. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, partial user interaction, and low impact on integrity and availability.

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of the affected web application, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other client-side attacks. The impact is limited to the affected component and does not include elevated privileges or system compromise. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, it is recommended to apply input validation and output encoding on the product_name parameter to prevent script injection. Monitor vendor channels for updates and consider restricting access to the affected admin interface to trusted users only.
