## Technical details

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in uBidAuction v2.0.1 due to improper neutralization of input in the 'filter' web module. Specifically, the parameters 'date_created', 'date_from', 'date_to', and 'created_at' are not properly sanitized before being rendered in the web page. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted GET request to various endpoints such as /posts/manage, /orders/myOrders, or /auctions/manage. Successful exploitation requires a victim to interact with a malicious link, allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the victim's browser session. This can result in the theft of session cookies or the performance of unauthorized actions on behalf of the user.
