Description
AIL Project's ail-framework contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the translation controls for chat messages and forum posts. The vulnerability arises because message and post identifiers are inserted directly into inline JavaScript onclick handlers without proper encoding for JavaScript string literals. This allows an attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript code if a specially crafted identifier is used. Exploitation requires a victim to click the affected translation button, causing the injected script to execute in the victim's browser under the AIL instance's security context.
