Technical details
A reflected XSS vulnerability exists in Phoca Download versions 5.0.0 through 6.1.4 in the search GET parameter. The vulnerability occurs because user-supplied input from the search parameter is not properly sanitized or encoded before being reflected in the HTTP response. An attacker can craft a malicious URL containing JavaScript code in the search parameter, and when a victim visits the link, the script executes in their browser with the context of the vulnerable application.
