Technical details

A Clickjacking vulnerability, often combined with Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), exists in Rems' Employee Management System 1.0. The flaw is located in the 'department.php' page, where the 'Department Name' field under the 'Add Department' function fails to properly neutralize input. A remote attacker can inject a malicious payload into this field; when a victim interacts with the crafted 'View More' area on the vulnerable page (potentially framed within a malicious site), the injected JavaScript executes in the context of the victim's session. This can lead to session hijacking or unauthorized data modification. Mitigation involves implementing X-Frame-Options or Content-Security-Policy (frame-ancestors) headers.
