CVE-2026-9471: Cross Site Scripting in yashpokharna2555 StudentManagementSystem
CVE-2026-9471 is a medium severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the yashpokharna2555 StudentManagementSystem. It occurs due to improper handling of the FIRST_NAME argument in the /student.php file, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious scripts. The vulnerability is publicly known and exploitable, but no patch or official remediation has been provided yet. The product uses continuous delivery with rolling releases, so specific affected or fixed versions are not identified. The vendor has been informed but has not responded to the issue.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a cross-site scripting flaw in the yashpokharna2555 StudentManagementSystem, specifically in the /student.php file's FIRST_NAME parameter. An attacker can remotely manipulate this parameter to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of the victim's browser. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.1, indicating medium severity. No official patch or remediation level is currently available, and the vendor has not responded to the initial report. The continuous delivery model complicates version tracking for affected or fixed releases.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users interacting with the vulnerable parameter, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other client-side attacks. The vulnerability requires low attack complexity and no privileges but does require user interaction. There is no indication of direct impact on confidentiality, integrity, or availability beyond the XSS scope.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or vendor response is available, users should consider implementing input validation and output encoding on the FIRST_NAME parameter as a temporary mitigation. Monitoring for updates from the vendor is recommended.
