**Stored Cross Site Scripting**
**Summary** Stored XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) is a security vulnerability that
occurs when an attacker injects malicious scripts into a web
application, which are then stored on the server and served to users.
When users access the affected content, the script executes in their
browsers, potentially leading to data theft, session hijacking, and
unauthorized actions. This type of attack can have severe
consequences for both users and the integrity of the web application.
**Severity** High
**Impact** The impact of Stored XSS can be severe, as it allows attackers to
execute malicious scripts in the browsers of users who visit the
compromised page. This can lead to data theft, such as capturing
sensitive information (e.g., cookies, login credentials), session
hijacking, and unauthorized actions on behalf of the user.
**Affected URL** http://<ip>:<port>/index
**Recommendation** To mitigate Stored XSS vulnerabilities, implement proper input
validation and output encoding to ensure that user-supplied data is
treated as data, not executable code. Use security libraries and
frameworks that automatically handle XSS protection, and employ
Content Security Policy (CSP) to restrict the execution of scripts.
Regular security testing and code reviews are also essential to
identify and remediate potential weaknesses.
**Proof of Concept**
1. Login to the console and navigate to Network → LAN.
2. Fill the necessary details and capture the request on burp.
3. Inject a simple payload like ssdd<h1>dd12<script>alert(1)</script></h1>
into the description parameter.
4. Forward it and Navigate to summary. Notice XSS triggered.
